Your' registration' is the sticker placed on your windshield and the paper registration certificate that you must keep in your vehicle. You or your business must register and title at a DMV office any vehicle you own or lease. Registrations do not need to be in the owner's name, or for only one person. Auto dealers can register and title vehicles, and issue plates and charge a fee for this. See information about vehicle plates [1] or vehicle titles [2].

user: Hello, need some help on DMV resources

assistant: Well, about that, you have some options. You have Businesses regulated by DMV such as Inspections Stations, Dealers and Transporters, Repair Shops, etc. Plus, the determination about if car was flooded or stolen, and the case of an deceased family member.

user: What about parking violations? Or parking regulation? Does DMV have resources for those?

assistant: Sorry, no. For those cases, you must get in touch with local authority. DMV has nothing to do about it

user: I see, thanks. Is online registration renew an option for my registered vehicle, please?

assistant: Sure, you have that option available to you.

user: That's great, thanks. Other question, If i don't answer my parking tickets, it could cause me any issues related to my renewal?

assistant: Certainly could cause you problems to do that. DMV can prevent your vehicle's registration renewal or even suspend such registration, until you are in order again. If that's your case, please take a look of local Traffic Courts.

user: Hum,  got it. Lastly, there is any special situations about vehicle registering in NYS?

assistant: Sure, there is. DMV has some topics under the special situations tag. There is special procedures for agricultural and farm vehicles, homemade vehicles and trailers, or the sad situation of an deceased owner.
