Car Tag and Title Registration in Broward County

Let’s face it: car tag and title registration are tasks nobody looks forward to.

But guess what? 

It doesn’t have to feel like a trip to the DMV from hell. As someone who’s a new resident in sunny Florida or perhaps you’re just looking for an easier way to renew, we’ve got all the secrets to make this process smooth, fast, and, dare I say, enjoyable.

What You Didn’t Know About Car Registration

Think of car registration as your car’s official green card. Without it, hitting the road is a legal no-go. In Florida, every vehicle must get a title (proving you own it) and registration (proving you’ve paid the correct dues). 

The catch is that if you are new to Broward County, you have to do both at the same time. 
No shortcuts. No “I’ll get to it later.”
There’s always someone who recently moved from New York and tries skipping the line by driving around with an old plate. Spoiler: A $2500 ticket later, he learns the hard way!
So, before you get too comfy in the Sunshine State, ensure your papers are in order.

The Documents You Absolutely Need

Treat this like preparing for a first date. Show up ready, or risk walking away empty-handed. Not even we can help you without the items in this checklist:

  • Proof of Ownership

Bring the Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin if it’s a new car. Used car? Make sure you’ve got the signed-over title from the previous owner.

  • Florida Insurance

Minimum state-required coverage is a must, or it’s game over.

  • Driver’s License

Make sure it’s a valid Florida license.

  • VIN Verification

If your car is from another state, this will help you avoid any funny business with its history.
Bonus tip if it’s your first time: Florida slaps a one-time fee of $225 for first-time registrations. So, don’t let that number surprise you when you get here.

Renewals, Specialty Tags, and the Fun Stuff

Once you’ve registered your car, renewals are a piece of cake and are done yearly. You can do it easily with us at Broward Auto Tags.

Now, let’s talk about personality. Did you know Florida has over 100 specialty license plates? These include plates supporting Autism Awareness, Miami Dolphins fan tags, and many more. Think of it as a way to let your car show off its vibe—because why settle for plain when you can have flair?

Transferring an out-of-state title is non-negotiable for all the snowbirds and transplants rolling into Broward County. 

Here’s how it works: 

  • Verify your title

  • Pay any sales tax you owe

  • Hand over your old plates. 

Florida law even requires you to register if you’re driving in the state more than 90 days a year.

The Costs You Care About

Let’s break it down. Registration fees are weight-based, and they will range from $27.60 to $225. Titles also cost about $75.25 for new ones. If you’re transferring, it’s a bit cheaper. 

If you’re financing your car, add lien-recording fees to the cost.
Remember always to double-check your paperwork. Broward locals often share horror stories of wasted afternoons because of one missing document. Don’t be that person.
