===Georgia=== In Georgia you can contact the DMV or go to their web page get a form then request that a DMV officer come out to your location and inspect the vehicle. At that time they will issue you a vin number and tag the car with that vin embossed on a metal tag. With that and the insurance go to the tag office. The form needed is T-22B I believe the cost is 50 beans Custom cars built in Georgia that are less than 25 years old follow the same registration, title, and tag procedures as a regular passenger vehicle. You will need a valid Georgia driver's license, proof of insurance, and the appropriate fees and taxes. Georgia charges an $18 title fee and a $20 registration fee. Tag costs and taxes will vary by county. No title or certificate will be issued to any car unless it meets the emissions standards adopted by the state. Your vehicle will need to be inspected prior to being registered. Hobby and antique vehicles over 25 years old (or vehicles manufactured to resemble such vehicles) are eligible for a special license plate through the state of Georgia. These cars do not require any special permits to operate on state roadways as long as they display a valid tag. Questions about registering, titling, and tagging your custom-built, hobby, or antique car should be directed to your county tax commissioner. This office can also tell you the specific fees involved to register and title your vehicle. Homemade trailers have their own registration process, and they receive special tags. Such trailers are not titled. 'Kit' and Replica vehicles are registered in the state of GA with a salvage title only. Even if you have a clean, valid title from another state, GA will change your title to salvage and change the year on your title to the year the vehicle was built. This means it may need to meet emissions standards. There is no exemption. (current as of 4/19/17) If you live in one of the 13 counties requiring emissions testing, you can forget about having a kit or replica vehicle...ie, Cobra. ====Registration periods==== Georgia has three registration periods, depending on where you live. Most of the counties use an open, year-round registration system. This means you register and renew your registration in the 30 days prior to your birthday each year. Registration ends on your birthday at midnight. A few counties (Calhoun, Charlton, Clay, McIntosh, Mitchell, Randolph, Stewart, and Turner) have a four-month registration period. In these counties you must renew your registration any time from January 1 to April 30. Talbot County has the only staggered registration in the state. If your birthday falls in: * January, February, or March: Registration is January 1-31. * April, May, or June: Registration is February 1-28 (in a leap year, the last day of registration is February 29). * July, August, or September: Registration is March 1-31. * October, November, or December: Registration is April 1-30.
