Fleet Registering for One Month Expiration
(1)
A fleet operator may request that the registration of all vehicles in the fleet expire in the same month. The month chosen may be any month of the year:(a)
The request shall be in writing and shall be signed by the fleet operator;(b)
When a request is received, all renewal fees due shall be paid before the conversion process can begin; and(c)
The request to adjust the registration and the payment of all renewal fees due shall be submitted at least 120 days prior to the end of the month chosen.(2)
All expiration dates will be moved forward.(3)
There will be no refunds or credits during the conversion process.(4)
The Driver and Motor Vehicle Services Division of the Department of Transportation (DMV) shall prorate all registration fees consistent with section (11) of this rule to reflect the expiration changes.(5)
Adjustment of a vehicle’s registration expiration to a future month shall be considered to be a renewal of that vehicle’s registration and all applicable registration renewal requirements shall be met by the fleet operator.(6)
A special billing shall be produced for the fleet showing the prorated fee needed to adjust the registration expirations of the fleet’s vehicles to the chosen month. This special billing shall be returned to DMV with the fees within 45 days of the date the special billing was mailed or delivered to the fleet operator.(7)
If the 120-day requirement in subsection (1)(c) of this rule is not met, DMV may choose to accept the request if the remaining provisions of section (1) of this rule are met and if there is sufficient time to complete the conversion process prior to the end of the month chosen.(8)
If the 45-day requirement in section (6) of this rule is not met, DMV may choose to continue with the conversion if there is sufficient time to complete the conversion process prior to the end of the month chosen. Otherwise, the conversion process shall be abandoned and the fleet-registered vehicles shall retain the currently assigned expirations.(9)
Vehicles added to a fleet during or after the conversion process shall be assigned a registration expiration month that corresponds with that of the other vehicles in the fleet.(10)
When DMV changes or assigns an expiration month to correspond with that of other vehicles in the fleet, the registration fees shall be prorated according to section (11) of this rule.(11)
When registration fees are prorated under section (4) or (10) of this rule, the fee shall be rounded down to the nearest $.25. For example, $10.79 would be rounded down to $10.75 and $10.23 would be rounded down to $10.
