RenewYourTag.com is a service provided by IMS and its affiliates that allows you to conveniently make payments to a county or city government or agency. A convenience fee is assessed each time you make a payment to the applicable third party through this service. This fee is charged to cover the costs of third-party vendor payment processing, the provision of a convenient alternative payment channel, and the maintenance of the platform. The exact amount of the convenience fee will be clearly displayed to you before you finalize any individual or scheduled (recurring) deposit. For scheduled deposits, a convenience fee is assessed each time a deposit takes place. You will have the opportunity to review the fee and cancel the transaction at no charge before your payment is processed. By completing a transaction after reviewing the disclosed fee, you acknowledge and agree to the payment of that fee.
Other than the receipt of payments made by you, less any applicable fees described below, neither the applicable county or city government or agency, nor any individuals employed by or affiliated with the applicable county, city government, or agency, profits from the provision of this service.
Use of this service is entirely voluntary. If you prefer not to pay the convenience fee, you may make the applicable payment by paying in person at the applicable third party office via cash or, in some cases, check or cashiers check, at no additional cost. Please contact the county or city government, or agency directly for information regarding in-person payment procedures and accepted forms of payment.
You may renew your tag up until midnight on the last day of your renewal month, unless specified otherwise by your local county office. If for any reason your driver's license, insurance or any other required information does not verify, and you have to upload documentation, it may take up to the next business day for the county to verify. PLEASE NOTE: If you attempt to renew on the last day, after the close of COUNTY business hours, then your renewal will be subject to late fees and penalty.

No, this feature is intended for military personnel, college students, and other circumstances in which the person can not receive their mail at the address on record with the County.
Most counties allow a change of address online, as long as you remain in the same county. When you submit a change of address, you will be temporarily "locked out" of the web site until the county updates your address. This usually takes 1 to 2 hours or the next business day if it is after 5 or the weekend.
It is just like writing a check from your check book. Just make sure you copy the 9 routing numbers and the bank account number accurately. This option may not be available in all counties.
E-Checks may take up to 10 days to process.
Credit Cards and Debit cards may take up to 7 days to process.
The mail fee is charged by the county to cover the cost of renewal notices and mailing out the decals.
The county will mail your decals to you. Once you process your payment the county will mail the decals and or new plates in 3 -5 business days.
