DMV: Printer malfunction delays registration renewals

The state Division of Motor Vehicles announced today that some registration renewals for March will be mailed about two weeks later than usual due to a malfunction of a printer that produces the registration stickers.

The delay will affect the registrations about 15,000 commercial, combination and commercial trailer registrations. Those owners should expect to receive their registration stickers by April 13. No passenger vehicle registrations are impacted by the delay.

While vehicle owners will not have their new registrations in hand, their renewal information has been updated in the DMV database.

All law enforcement agencies in Rhode Island and nationwide have been notified about this delay in the registration forms. “As long as owners have renewed their registrations, they will be listed as active in our system,” said Charles F. “Ted” Dolan, administrator of the DMV, who apologized for the delay.
