How do you register a car in Iowa online?
Does Iowa allow online car registration? I’m moving back home to be closer to my family. I want to register my car online to save time and get it done quicker.

“According to
Iowa law
, the state does not allow online registration for cars. Instead, it requires you to register your vehicle with the county treasurer’s office within 30 days from the date of your move.Even if your license plate is still valid in another state, Iowa requires its resident drivers to register their car in Iowa. You will need the following documents to do so:
- Your current certificate of title or registration
- A completed and signed Application for Certificate of Title and/or Registration
If you are moving from another county, you must inform the county treasurer of the previous county of your changed address within 10 days after your move. They will forward your car registration to the county you live in now.
Moving can be overwhelming. Ensure the journey goes smoothly by getting a roadside assistance membership. If you’re looking for roadside assistance at a great price, try
