r/321 on Reddit: Car Registration Cost
September 24, 2023 -
Searched the sub but found nothing recent. We’re moving from out of state. So many people in the moving groups talk about the exorbitant cost of new registration but FL’s DMV site looks like it’s $225/vehicle. Wanted to ask here if I’m missing a piece or are people just outraged over this cost?

Registering a car for the first time is expensive. I don’t know how it compares to other states but I dropped a lot of money to register 2 vehicles when I moved here.

That’s the cost of transferring your vehicles registrations to Florida, you’ll have 30 days todo it I believe once your full time living in Florida.. but to be completely honest there’s so many out of state tags around here, you’d get away with it for awhile

r/florida on Reddit: How to DIY new car registration when buying a car in Florida?
March 24, 2025 -
according to flhsmv, new registration is $225 + plate $25 so around $250.
Dealer is asking $895 for dmv fee. Someone in other post suggested DIY, How would one go about that?
You can't drive the car to DMV without a temp plate.
some also said you can't buy the car without a plate to transfer to. dealer is required by law to register the car during a sale.
and It looks like you can't get a temporary plate if you don't have a bill of sale. not to mention dmv usually ask for 2-3 day in advance to schedule an appointment.
so it's the chicken and egg problem. how do I get a temporary 30 day plate before buying the car?

Are you sure the taxes aren’t included in that. The DMV gets the taxes too. Plus if you over pay them you’ll get a check for the remainder.

Generally speaking, if you have the bill of sale properly filled out and signed by you and the seller it is a valid form of tag. I’ve heard up to 30 days but I wouldn’t trust it. I’d take it straight to DMV, maybe even setting an appointment for the next day or later the same day so should you be pulled over you can prove intent to get it registered immediately. Now if the dealer will allow that, who knows. They may not allow you to leave the lot and sign the sales paperwork without doing the tag as well and in that case you just gotta chalk it up to the cost of doing business with them.
