My Car is in Washington But I Need to Smog and Renew the Tags in CA
by NeedTags Support
This is true. We can renew your vehicle's registration without a smog check and mail you your new registration card and sticker to your Washington address.
We make the process simple. Just email us your license plate number and REG 5103 before you use our online DMV registration renewal system, and we'll make sure to process your order with a smog check exemption. You can print out, complete, then scan the REG 5103 as a PDF or if you don't have access to a scanner, simply complete the REG 5103 online, sign it electronically, and then save it as a PDF.
Next, visit our online registration renewal page and submit your renewal order. Enter your Washington address when you're asked where you'd like shipping to. Once we receive your order, we'll process it along with your REG 5103. This will allow you to bypass your vehicle's smog check requirement until you return to California.
Please contact us for current out of state smog check exemption service rates. We will provide you an email address to upload your REG 5103 along with our response.
