Application for registration of motor vehicle:

• Registered owner(s)
• Mailing address
• Lienholder (if applicable)
• Make
• Model
• Body Type
• VIN#
• Weight
• Color
• GVW
• Year Model

Just like your drivers license, your vehicle needs to be registered. The registration of the vehicle is done only once followed by an annual renewal. If found unregistered, your vehicle may be impounded by the authorities. So to avoid that circumstance, have your vehicle registered.

The deadline for the registration of the vehicles is the last working day of the month that your vehicle is scheduled to expire based on your current registration. So, see to it that you have updated it before the month ends.

Please explain what are other uses of obtaining this document/certificate.
e.g. Birth Certificate can be used as proof of identity.
