On Wednesday (5), Detran.SP (São Paulo State Department of Traffic) released the new calendar for the expiration of this year’s mandatory vehicle licensing, which starts in July, and no longer April, as it was until 2021.
Licensing is the procedure that annually updates the car’s document, the CRLV (Vehicle Registration and Licensing Certificate), mandatory for the circulation of vehicles in the country. In 2022, it will cost R$ 144.86. This year, as in 2021, there will be no charge for mandatory insurance, the DPVAT.
The schedule changed to accompany the new installment of the IPVA (Tax on the Ownership of Motor Vehicles), which went from three to five months – the installments will be paid between February and June. The vehicle owner must have the IPVA up to date to pay for the license.
“Our objective is to reduce the economic impacts caused by the pandemic and provide a longer period for the vehicle owner to carry out the licensing only after paying the IPVA”, said, in a statement, Neto Mascellani, director-president of Detran.SP .
Vehicle owners in São Paulo will also be able to license in advance, along with the single IPVA quota or added to the first installment, in February.
The tax due date starts on January 10th and, like the licensing schedule, varies according to the final license plate number of the vehicle.
In January, the State Treasury receives the payment of the single quota, which this year will have a 9% discount. The vehicle owner will still be able to pay the IPVA in cash in February, when the discount will be 5%.
Whoever decides to pay the tax in installments will start paying in February, when licensing can also be paid. Anticipation is optional.
Those who prefer to follow the Detran.SP calendar will pay between July and December, except for the owners of trucks and tractors, for whom the payment will be in the months of October, November and December.
The payment of the IPVA in installments ends in June and, as of July, the vehicle owner will already be able, according to the license plate of his vehicle, to apply for a new license.
The final date for paying for the new document is always the last day of the month designated for those plates. The owner of a car with a license plate ending in 3, for example, will have until August 31 to pay for his vehicle’s license.
Driving a vehicle with an expired license is considered a very serious traffic violation. The fine is R$293.47 and the driver receives seven points on the CNH (National Driver’s License). According to Detran.SP, the vehicle can also be collected, which results in other expenses to the owner.
How to pay
It is possible to pay for the license directly on the banking network, through bank applications, on internet banking and at ATMs at Santander, Bradesco, Banco do Brasil, Safra, Itaú and Caixa Econômica Federal and at lottery outlets.
The digital document is available for download and printing under the “Digital Licensing” item on the Poupatempo, Detran.SP and Senatran portals, in addition to the Poupatempo Digital, Detran.SP and Digital Transit Card applications. The driver will be able to print on plain bond paper (A4-white).
