Licensing – Terms of License.
35 RCNY § 60A-05
in effect§ 60A-05 Licensing – Terms of License.
(a) New Licenses. The term of a new Vehicle License is two years from the date it is issued.
(b) Renewals. The renewal term of a Vehicle License is two years from the date on which the previous License expired.
(c) When to File Application for Renewal.
(1) A renewing Applicant must file a completed application at least 30 days before the expiration date of the License. The review of applications submitted fewer than 30 days before the expiration date will not be completed until after the expiration date of the License. Licenses are not Valid after the License expiration date until the application for renewal is approved by the Commission.
(2) A renewing Applicant can file a completed application up to 60 days after the expiration date as a "late application", if the Applicant pays a late fee of $25. When a late application is submitted, the License will remain expired and not Valid until the application for renewal is approved by the Commission.
(3) Application Submission Date.
(i) Applications filed online: The date of submission is the date an application is filed online.
(ii) Applications filed in person: The date of submission is the date an application is filed in person.
(4) A License cannot be renewed more than 60 days after the expiration date.
(d) Suspended Licenses.
(1) If a License is suspended, the Licensee must apply for renewal as required in subdivision (c) of this section to renew the License. Failure to complete the renewal requirements means that the License cannot be renewed.
(2) A License that is suspended is not Valid and cannot be used until the suspension ends. This is true even if the Applicant has filed an application for a renewal.
