VEHICLE REGISTRATION INSURANCE REINSTATEMENT GUIDE
VEHICLE REGISTRATION INSURANCE REINSTATEMENT GUIDE
Nevada Revised Statute 485.185 requires continuous liability insurance coverage on all active registrations. There is no
grace period. Reinstatement fees for an insurance lapse range from $251 to $751 and fines ranging from $250 to $1,000
are assessed on a tiered system based on the length of the lapse and the history of previous violation(s). If the lapse period
is 91 days or longer or a third offense, a Certificate of Financial Responsibility (SR-22) must be obtained prior to paying
fines and fees and the certificate must be maintained for three years. Third-offense reinstatements will result in a minimum
30-day suspension of a driver’s license.

REINSTATEMENT requirements per NRS 482.557 and/or 485.317
You can pay the fee and/or fine to reinstate your registration at a full service DMV office. If a Certificate of Financial
Responsibility (SR22) is required, you will need to go to your local DMV office. You can also pay and reinstate by mail
(Nevada DMV; Central Services and Records Division; Nevada LIVE; 555 Wright Way; Carson City, NV 89711) or by fax
(775.684.4543). You will need to include a notarized Declaration of Responsibility (NVL019) and your current Nevada
Evidence of Insurance card.
You may request a hearing for a vehicle registration suspension caused by a lack or lapse of insurance by completing and
submitting form NVL 005 by fax to Central Services and Records Division, Processing Center, NV LIVE at (775) 684-4543.
When requesting a hearing you must provide current Nevada evidence of insurance, a Nevada license plate number, and
vehicle identification number (VIN). A hearing will not be granted; for denial of a reduction in the reinstatement fee; to
challenge the granting of a waiver or reduction of the reinstatement fee; if additional time is needed to save money to pay
the reinstatement fee; because of a dispute with the insurance company.
If your insurance company has denied your coverage and you believe this to be incorrect, you can contact the Nevada
Division of Insurance at (775) 687-0700 or (702) 486-4009 to inquire about filing a complaint.
