What is a Privilege Reinstatement (Administration) Fee?
If you do not pay a motor vehicle related offence on time, the Registry of Motor Vehicles may refuse to renew your driver's licence or vehicle permit until the fine is paid. You will also have to pay a Privilege Reinstatement fee before you can access most Registry of Motor Vehicles services.
If you have received a letter from the Registry of Motor Vehicles advising you that you need to pay the Privilege Reinstatement fee, you will need to do this before you can complete Registry of Motor Vehicle (RMV) transactions.
