We charge a processing and renewal fee for all registration applications. Also, first time, reapplying and class change dealer applicants applying under general, broker and lease/finance classes are required to make a one-time payment to the Motor Vehicle Dealers Compensation Fund (MVDCF).
Starting February 1, 2025, late renewal fees will apply to any dealer or salesperson renewal submitted after the expiry date. A late renewal fee refers to a fee imposed on renewal applications submitted after the expiry date for the registration. Applications submitted after the expiry date will no longer be considered renewals. Instead, they will be treated as new applications and subjected to standard processing and routine evaluations.
