Various provisions related to driver and vehicle services modification
SF 1500 modifies Minnesota's driver and vehicle services by changing fee structures and adding online renewal options. It imposes an $8 fee for vehicle registration renewals and a $12 fee for other transactions (like new registrations), while eliminating fees for refunds, corrections, and permanent title surrenders. The bill establishes online renewal for driver's licenses (both REAL ID-compliant and noncompliant) under specific conditions, such as no identity changes and having a recent photo on file. It also allocates fees to state accounts (including technology and operating funds) and requires quarterly payments to deputy registrars for processing no-fee transactions ($9 per renewal, $13 per other transaction). The changes take effect July 1, 2025.
