New Vehicle Registration
Register a brand-new vehicle purchased from a dealer and leave with plates and registration in hand.
How we help
When you buy a new vehicle, the dealer paperwork has to be matched to your insurance, your identification and the correct fee schedule before plates can be issued. We review the entire packet, catch the small errors that cause a rejection, and process the registration so you are not sent back and forth.
We prepare and review the paperwork before it is submitted, so a missed signature or an incorrect assignment does not send you back to the counter. Bring the documents below to our West Babylon office — or call first if you are unsure whether something applies to your transaction.
Documents you may need
Requirements can vary by transaction. We confirm the exact list when you contact us.
- Photo identification (NY driver license or NYS non-driver ID)
- Proof of New York insurance for the vehicle
- Dealer bill of sale and purchase documents
- Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin or dealer title work
- Payment for government fees and our service fee
What to expect
Submit a request or call and we will confirm what applies to your vehicle, explain any government fees, and tell you when to come in. Processing times are set by the DMV and vary by transaction, so we never promise same-day completion.
