The Florida DMV (FLHSMV) recently released a new specialty license plate! The newest auto tag shows the iconic castle in Orlando, Florida. You can celebrate your love for this magical place of childhood wonders without stopping at the DMV.

We're excited to announce that a new specialty license plate is available for your car: a tag commemorating the Blue Angels! We love going to Fort Lauderdale beach to watch them every year.

Did you know that one in ten cars in Florida has a specialty license plate? Floridians can customize their license plates and contribute to their favorite organization all at the same time. There have been many new changes in 2020 - for everyone of course. For the FLHSMV, there have been some incredible changes.

The FLHSMV is in charge of many boating legalities in Florida: boating registration, requirements to operate a vessel, and more. Since we have the benefit of so many beaches and docks, owning a boat in Florida is par for the course for most people. However, figuring out what you need to drive that boat legally in the State can be confusing. June is Boat Safety Month, and we’re here to help you make sure you have what you need before the boating starts!

No - all DMV offices in Florida are closed as of March 19th thru April 19th. The FLHSMV is currently set to reopen on April 19th, but we are not sure at this time if they will remain closed past April 19th. However, the State of Florida has not at this time offered any relief as far as registration renewals, new tags, etc. Please review the site below for updates on the FLHSMV's hours of operation during Novel Coronavirus. You are still able to get these documents renewed via local auto tag agencies in the area.

As far as we know, at this time, the FLHSMV is not offering extensions to registration renewals and other standard vehicle paperwork during COVID-19. They are offering extensions on driver's license renewals at this time for those with expiring licenses from March 16th thru April 16th. Also, there are extensions on the Real ID requirements for Florida. Please keep checking back for updates and we will try to keep you informed as more information comes in on the State's plans regarding Novel Coronavirus relief. At this time, if your registration has expired, you are still at risk of being pulled over and receiving a ticket.

Executive Order 20-86 has created a lot of changes for the State of Florida. For drivers and snowbirds with second homes in Palm Beach and Boca Raton, this could seriously affect your ability to travel to your second home in the Sunshine State. On March 27th, Governor DeSantis began limiting travel into the State. Who Is Being Screened by the Checkpoints on I-10 and I-95? Everyone will be required to stop at the checkpoints. If you're from Louisiana, New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and trying to travel to the State of Florida, you'll be required to isolate yourself for 14 days once you have reentered Florida, or for the length of their visit, whichever time period is shorter.

Due to COVID-19, Florida Governor Ron De Santis has extended all driver's license renewals for 30 days. This went into effect on March 16th, so if your license is expiring by April 16th, you will have until May 16th to renew the license and you will still be able to drive with the expired license.This may get extended yet again (we're not sure), but for now, you're legally safe to drive without renewing and you won't have to add that to your list of to-dos and potential stressors for a little while longer.
