HB 7492 Rhode Island House · 2024 Regular Session

AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- REGISTRATION OF VEHICLES

This bill updates vehicle registration rules to allow cars leased for 36 months to be registered for an additional year that aligns with the end of their lease term. It also adjusts registration fees for these longer-term leases to reflect the reduced time the vehicle will be on the road. The legislation applies specifically to vehicle owners and dealerships handling long-term lease agreements.
