SALT LAKE CITY--()--Renewing your vehicle registration doesn’t have to be stressful or inconvenient. Within minutes, you are now able to renew your vehicle registration on the go, at any time using your mobile device. This year, the Utah Division of Motor Vehicle launched Renewal Express Mobile. The Utah DMV is continually looking for ways to make the vehicle renewal process more convenient for citizens. Not only can you renew your vehicle from the convenience of your own home, but you are able to do so on your iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry, Android, and other handheld or tablet device by visiting http://www.renewalexpress.utah.gov. This service is available via the official website of the State of Utah, Utah.gov and is just one example of the of hundreds of services offered online to bridge the gap between citizens and government.

“Online vehicle registration has been extremely successful in Utah. Because of its continued success, we have expanded the site even further to allow citizens to renew on their mobile phone without a decrease in service or functionality,” said Barry Conover, Executive Director of the Utah State Tax Commission. “We recognize that citizens are busy and are increasingly utilizing mobile technology to conduct business transactions at their convenience. In addition, being part of mobile innovation and expansion will also help the DMV realize more efficiencies.”

Last year alone, 615,130 vehicles were registered using Renewal Express. Since the mobile version launched almost 2,000 people have visited Renewal Express on their mobile device at http://www.renewalexpress.utah.gov. The state of Utah is proud to offer this valuable service to the public as part of the many award-winning services that can be found at Utah.gov.
