TX– Texas is ending its temporary waiver of certain vehicle title and registration requirements, Harris County Tax Assessor-Collector Ann Harris Bennett announced Thursday.

The waiver will expire at 11:59 p.m. on April 14.

“Gov. Greg Abbott provided a waiver for registration and titling requirements during the pandemic as part of the state’s disaster declaration,” Bennett said. “The public needs to know that the termination date for the auto waiver is coming soon and that the Harris County Tax Office is ready to assist vehicle owners who have until April 14, 2021 to complete their pending transactions. We continue to offer support in person, through in-office appointments, online services and by mail.”
