Colorado Car Registration Guide | Denver News

Denver’s crackdown on expired car tags starts next week—so check yours now. Buying from a dealership? They usually handle it. Private seller? Head to your county office. You’ll need the title, emissions cert, and proof of insurance—and you’ve got 60 days (90 if new to Colorado). Fees vary but average around $125, plus surcharges for roads, bridges, and emissions. The optional Keep Colorado Wild Pass ($29) is now auto-added but you can opt out—it funded nearly $41M last year. Renewals are easy online or in person, with annual ownership tax starting at over 2% (drops to ~$3 after 9 years). Late fees kick in at $25/month after grace period—and no renewals if you owe tolls or fines. And hey, Colorado’s got tons of specialty plates—from history to charities—and even vanity plates for that personalized touch.
