If you move to a different state, you’re going to need to get a new driver’s license. You’re also going to need to register your vehicle in the new state. You probably already knew this.
However, you might not have know how soon the state expects you to do this. For example, in California, you need to register your car within 20 days or else be subject to additional fees and possible tickets.
The first twenty days after you move are going to fly by. You’ll be looking for new places to go, meeting new people, starting a new job… registering your vehicle isn’t going to be on the top of your mind. However, don’t forget about it. Make notes; put it on your calendar. You don’t want the DMV on you butt before you even get unpacked.
