When you apply for a vehicle registration replacement, you will not be able to change your last name during the transaction. Therefore, your new registration document will have your previous name on it.
Have you already changed your last name?
Not yet, but I will be doing so very soon.

Where can I get more information about the topic of replacing my vehicle registration?
You can find additional information about replacing your registration on our website under Registration.
Ok, now to renew the registration, if my name changes, can I get the new name in the online registration?
You can not change your name during the online transaction. You can still renew online but the new document will display your previous name.
Are you eligible for a 'no fee' registration?
yes I am
Okay, you will need to renew at an office, and you will need to bring documentation to prove you are eligible for exempt status.  You can also use this visit to make the name change you wanted.
will you guys get me my stuff if I've had an address change and let the postal office know?
We will try but there is no guarantee that the USPS will forward all DMV documents to your new address
what will I need besides my personal info when I renew the registration online?
