You can still renew your vehicle license even if it has been expired for over a year. The renewal process is essentially an endorsement. The expiration date on the vehicle license refers to the vehicle's annual inspection deadline. If it has expired, it means the vehicle did not undergo the required annual inspection on time. In this case, you need to submit a request for a supplementary inspection at the traffic police department and then proceed to the inspection station for the annual check. Once passed, the information on the vehicle license will be updated. Below is additional information: 1.

Consequences of an expired vehicle license: The most significant impact of an expired vehicle license is the invalidation of insurance. According to the "Motor Vehicle Third-Party Insurance Clause," insurance is only valid for legally compliant vehicles. This means that if a vehicle fails to undergo the required annual inspection and is involved in an accident, the insurance company will not cover the damages. All losses and compensation resulting from the accident must be borne by the vehicle owner, who may also be held primarily responsible for the accident.
