CARS.OK.GOV – The Quick and Convenient Solution For Renewing Oklahoma Tags Online

Tag Renewal Notices Available Online Through New “Remind Me” Feature

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – June 1, 2010 – More than 10,500 Oklahomans have enjoyed the convenience of renewing their vehicle registration tag online since Oklahoma’s official Convenient Auto Renewal System (CARS) launched on February 17, 2010.

The service, located at http://CARS.OK.GOV, has also allowed more than 1,400 Oklahomans to sign up for online email notices for their tag renewal month through the REMIND ME feature located on the homepage. Email reminders are sent to users on the first day of their expiration month.

“Even if you’re not visiting the site to renew a vehicle tag, Oklahomans are still able to set up this free reminder for when their tag is due,” said Paula Ross, Oklahoma Tax Commission spokesperson.  “This is just another way for people to be able to keep up with today’s hectic lifestyle and pace.”

To learn more about which vehicles in Oklahoma can be processed through CARS and additional information, visit http://www.tax.ok.gov/mvonlinereg.html.

CARS is a product of a partnership between the Oklahoma Tax Commission and OK.gov, Oklahoma’s official website that allows for no tax dollars to be used to build, operate, or maintain the service online.
