What should I do if my registration is not renewed due to an unpaid excise bill?
If a taxpayer is in this situation and has been refused renewal of their registration or license, they may remedy the matter by making full payment on the bill, including all the fees and penalties which will include a $20 release fee. Once the bill has been paid, the city will give the motorist a receipt to show the Registry of Motor vehicles as proof of payment. At this point, they can re-register the vehicle.
