If you\u2019re like the average American, you have a lot of paperwork to keep and store for multiple years. Think applications, bank statements, tax returns, letters of employment, invoices, and the list goes on. As you can see, losing your registration card isn\u2019t that surprising.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In fact, as the nation is getting more and more paperless, people are still using about 700 pounds of paper products, each and per year. The EPA says most of it is used in offices including copier paper, computer printouts, notepads, business envelopes and the like.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">Car registration<\/span><\/strong> <strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">right from your smartphone<\/span><\/strong><br \/>So if you can\u2019t find your registration card after you\u2019ve already renewed your CT tags, don\u2019t worry you can complete an order for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etags.com\/app\/us?utm_source=blog_article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">registration card replacement <\/a>with eTags online. There\u2019s no need for you to make an appointment or wait for your turn in any line at the CT DMV. Just whip up your smartphone or get on your laptop, and answer a few question to order your duplicate registration card.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"is-style-cnvs-paragraph-callout\">New York, Texas, and the District of Columbia use windshield stickers exclusively, instead of license plate ones like Florida<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">Order duplicate CT registration card online<\/span><\/strong><br \/>eTags offers a variety of services related to car ownership online including a brand new registration if you need a completely new CT license plate number. But if you just can\u2019t find your vehicle\u2019s paperwork in your glove box, simply order a duplicate registration online. Once online, just submit your license plate number and the last six digits of your VIN number. Then enter the address you want the card to be shipped.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">Penalties and fines for expired tags<\/span><\/strong><br \/>In Connecticut, if you\u2019re pulled over and don\u2019t have a valid registration, you can face a fine of between $150 and $300 and potentially have your driver\u2019s license suspended. You car may even get impounded until you can show valid Connecticut registration. If your CT tags are expired for two years or longer though, you must get new license plates for your car. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"is-style-cnvs-paragraph-callout\">As of May 1, 2019, Connecticut had 3,023,124 currently active license plates on vehicles according to CT By The Numbers \u00a0<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Connecticut switched to windshield decals in 2006, but by the summer of 2010, the Constitution State got rid of registration stickers altogether No need to renew, just replace insteadWe all&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1653,1591,1599,2],"tags":[1624,1655],"class_list":{"0":"post-18230","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-connecticut","7":"category-electric-vehicles","8":"category-rvs-motorhomes","9":"category-vehicle-registration","10":"tag-car-registration","11":"tag-registration-card"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How To Replace Your Connecticut Registration Card If You Lost It | eTags - Vehicle Registration &amp;
