COVINGTON, Ga. - The Newton County Tax Commissioner is working with the Georgia Department of Revenue to implement a new state-of-the-art vehicle registration and titling system to the Tag Office.

The new system will help provide faster and more efficient service and more self-service options.

These system upgrades will take place in late May and the Newton County Tag Office will be closed after noon on Thursday, May 23 and all day Friday, May 24 and Monday, May 27. All tag renewals and title transactions due in that time frame must be processed early before the system upgrade.

Please visit dor.georgia.gov/motor-vehicles to check a vehicle renewal notice and for more information.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we upgrade to this new system and get all staff trained to best serve the public.
