Registration Renewal
W Sahara & Valley View, Las Vegas
Your registration notice came in the mail and your smog check is due. At Smog Busters on W Sahara Avenue, you can get both done in the same visit — no two separate stops, no DMV line. Pull up to the hut at 3800 West Sahara Avenue, near W Sahara Avenue and Valley View Boulevard. Pass the smog check and the registration renewal is processed right here. Your new sticker mails from the Nevada DMV directly to your address.
What to Bring for Your Registration Renewal
For most standard registration renewals, bring three things:
- Your Nevada DMV renewal notice — the notice mailed from the DMV listing your vehicle and renewal fee
- Current Nevada insurance card — showing active coverage for the vehicle
- Valid ID
If your renewal notice indicates a smog check is required, the smog test is done here at the same visit. When your vehicle passes, the result is submitted to the Nevada DMV electronically. The renewal paperwork is then processed right at the hut. Your new registration sticker mails from the Nevada DMV to the address on file for your vehicle.
