A nonresident owner of a vehicle, or any owner upon transfer of ownership or lease, may as an alternative to annual registration, obtain not more than one (1) temporary registration in a twelve (12) month period. The temporary registration authorizes operation of the vehicle on the highways of this state for a period of 30, 60 or 90 days. Therefore, if any temporary is issued from the Treasurer's Office, once it expires it cannot be extended and you must purchase a regular vehicle registration.
