Please note that vehicles new to the State must be registered within 30 days of the day you move to GA. Out of State tags expire 30 days after you move to GA, regardless to the date shown on the tag. Only two exceptions apply, non-resident military personnel and full-time college students.
​
Payment of title tax is required on most title transactions.
​
Individuals moving to Georgia have 30 calendar days after establishing their residency to register their vehicles. However, if your out-of-state registration is not current, you should come into a Oglethorpe County Tag Office as soon as possible.
​
Upon registering the vehicle you will pay the Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT), which is a one-time title tax of 7.00%. This amount is due upon titling any motor vehicle. For an estimate of this fee you can click here to be directed to the TAVT calculator on the Georgia Dept. of Revenue website.
​
New Georgia residents where vehicle is titled in personal name are required to pay 50% of the TAVT at the time the vehicle is initially registered; the remaining TAVT balance is due within one year. A Georgia title will not be printed until the remaining TAVT balance is paid in full.

If you have a lienholder: The Georgia title will be mailed to the lienholder on file. A Georgia title will not be printed until the remaining TAVT balance is paid in full.
-
If you do not have a lienholder: The Georgia title will be mailed to the registered owner at the address on file. A Georgia title will not be printed until the remaining TAVT balance is paid in full.
When your vehicle requires a Georgia title, you will be unable to register your vehicle and obtain a Georgia license plate (tag) without applying for a title at the time of registration.
