N.J. Admin. Code § 13:21-9.14 - Extension of prior registration for timely renewal through the Internet; interim duplicate registration; and interim driver license and non-driver identification card receipt

(a) An applicant who has accurately and timely completed a registration renewal process through the Internet, but who does not receive a renewed registration document from the Commission before the date on which the applicant's prior registration document expires, shall be issued an interim registration by the Chief Administrator, in accordance with the provisions of N.J.S.A. 39:3-4 and 39:2-3. The interim registration shall expire upon receipt by the applicant of the renewed registration document or the passage of 30 days from the original expiration date, whichever is earlier, unless the Chief Administrator expressly determines otherwise.

(b) Upon successful completion of an online duplicate registration transaction, a printable receipt and interim registration will be made available to the applicant and will also be sent to the applicant by encrypted electronic mail. The receipt and interim registration is valid for 30 days from the date of the online electronic transaction and shall contain, at a minimum, an expiration date, the owner's name and co-owner's name, if applicable, an address, the year, type and make of the vehicle, the vehicle identification number, the vehicle registration plate number, and the date, time, and confirmation number of the transaction. The receipt and interim registration is valid as proof of vehicle registration only, and it expires on the date shown on the document, unless extended. The receipt and interim registration shall not be used to transfer vehicle ownership or to request a duplicate certificate of ownership.

(c) Upon successful completion of an online renewal of a driver license, a printable interim driver license will be made available to the licensee, and will also be sent to the licensee by encrypted electronic mail. The interim driver license is valid for 30 calendar days from the date of the online electronic transaction. The interim license shall contain, at a minimum, issuance and expiration dates, transaction identification and type, the licensee's full name, address, date of birth, and driver license number and class, endorsements and restrictions, organ donor status if the licensee is an organ donor, a signature line for the licensee to sign the interim license, and a barcode. An interim driver license cannot be used for identification purposes. The printable interim driver license must be signed and carried with the driver's most recent driver license issued by the Commission, unless the printable interim driver license is marked "initial" or "duplicate." An interim driver license shall serve as documentation of interim driving privileges. A licensee is permitted to drive a motor vehicle of the class for which he or she is licensed, when the interim license is in his or her possession and unexpired.

(d) Upon successful completion of an online renewal of a non-driver identification card, a printable non-driver identification card receipt will be made available to the applicant and will also be sent to the applicant by encrypted electronic mail. A non-driver identification card receipt may not be used for identification purposes.

An interim driver license and interim commercial driver license cannot be used for identification purposes. The printable interim driver license or interim commercial driver license must be signed and carried with the driver's most recent driver license issued by the Commission, unless the printable interim driver license or interim commercial driver license is marked "initial" or "duplicate." An interim driver license and interim commercial driver license shall serve as documentation of interim driving privileges. A licensee is permitted to drive a motor vehicle of the class for which he or she is licensed, when the interim driver license or interim commercial driver license is in his or her possession and unexpired.

(f) Upon successful completion of an online duplicate non-driver identification card transaction, a printable non-driver identification card receipt will be made available to the applicant, and will also be sent to the applicant by encrypted electronic mail.
