Julie P. Magee Alabama Revenue Commissioner
MONTGOMERY—State Revenue Commissioner
announced today that the
April 2014 motor vehicle registration, renewal, transfer and vehicle property tax payment
deadlines have been extended through May 16, 2014, for all Alabama residents affected by
county office closings due to severe weather conditions, occurring April 28, 2014.
Alabama vehicle owners whose registration month is April will not be subject to
delinquent penalties and interest for late vehicle registration or for late payment of vehicle
property tax, provided the registrations are completed during the extension period which runs
through May 16, 2014.
The extension also applies to the payment of property taxes on vehicles registered 
under the International Registration Plan (IRP); however, it does not apply to IRP motor vehicle
registrations and renewals for Alabama–based vehicles, as these registrations and renewals are
processed by the ADOR. [Reference attached ORDER, dated April 30, 2014].
The April registration renewal extension also applies to individuals who have recently
purchased or otherwise acquired a vehicle, but have not registered their newly‐acquired vehicle
within the 20‐day registration period. This affects vehicles purchased or otherwise acquired,
whereby the 20‐day registration requirement falls during the week of April 28, 2014, through
May 2, 2014.
