How To Register Your Vehicle at Clearview

Step 1: Review Your Registration Needs

You typically need to register a vehicle when:

  • You purchase a vehicle in Louisiana
  • You move to Louisiana with an out-of-state vehicle
  • Ownership of a vehicle has changed
  • Your registration has expired or needs renewal / updating


Registration vs. Title — What’s the Difference?

Vehicle registration allows your vehicle to be legally driven on Louisiana roads.


Vehicle title establishes ownership of the vehicle.


In many cases, both registration and title work are completed during the same visit. If you’re not sure what applies, contact us and we’ll guide you through it.

Step 2: Gather the Required Documents

Each situation has slightly different requirements, but most registration services require original documents.


  • Valid photo ID

  • Proof of Louisiana insurance

  • Vehicle title or ownership paperwork

  • Registration Renewal Notice with Renewal ID number

  • A Form of Payment (cash or credit card)

  • Supporting documents based on your situation


NOTICE: Louisiana Law requires that all vehicles you have registered be currently covered with the required limits of liability insurance or other security as provided under R.S. 32:861 et al. The law is enforced by civil and criminal penalty.
