tomgates Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Just wondering how getting the annual registration works for Estados de Mexico, CDMX, etc that I see around here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 You get a printout of the annual tarifa circula from the internet and then pay it at a bank. You are not issued a yearly sticker, other than the original hologram card. Produce the stamped receipt if challenged. If you are late paying in CDMX you pay a fairly large penalty.

bontepar Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 You can pay on line and print the receipt, keep it in the car at all times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryB Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 and if the cop checks the registration against your address? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Doesn't matter. Mexicans can have vehicles registered in other regions for a variety of legitimate reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlongTheWay Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Has anyone here, who actually HAS DF plates on their OWN vehicle, EVER had any problem? Even been pulled over? Lost their car or gone to jail? First hand experience?

CHILLIN Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Spencer is a Puritan, Boy Scout, and new father. I mean that in the nicest way. I was pulled over two years ago, a low level transito had pulled someone over in Chapalas Haciendas 1 entrance. I guess he thought I was coming in a little fast and reckless, and waved me aside and checked my papers. He was fascinated with by my tarifa card. Didn't notice my B.C. driver's license had just expired, I was issued my Mexican driver's license the very next day. Then he waved me on. I don't doubt there is a lot of fraud in the Mexican used auto business. It is a bit of a game. I am told the ones to be careful of if you have no pedimento (import documents) are the Aduana (customs) patrols. Which I have never seen, and they are more interested in real smugglers than some old geezer in a 25 year old truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer is a Mexican trained attorney with the education, experience and qualifications to answer most Mexican legal questions, especially simple ones like this. And you? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Even simpler - the law of nature, evolve or die. Lawyers are of many stripes. Some are like scholars, knowing every nuance in the law, others are master negotiators and fixers ( connected over many generations), guess which one I have chosen? Oh wait, I also know one who is an expert in automobile questions and immigration, but he only speaks Spanish with his legal hat on. Also a friend in Guadalajara with extensive knowlege about anything on wheels, and the big, big money to back it up, for two generations. He has commercial pilots license, and a race track license/number. My life works for me, apparently, for many on this board lately - not so much. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
