Before you file

  • Using unverified weighing instruments can lead to a fine during inspection.
  • Start at least 30 days before the expiry date so a rejected form does not push you past it.
  • Requirements and fees can differ by state or city. Confirm the final list on the official site or with the issuing office.
  • Keep clear PDF or JPG scans of every document ready before you begin.
