80% Discount on TAG Fines for Vehicle Registration: How to Take Advantage of the Benefit

If you have fines associated with the TAG and need to renew your vehicle registration, you can now take advantage of a benefit that allows you to pay only 20% of accumulated fines, thanks to Law 21.547. Here’s how it works and how to make the most of it before the deadline.

What is this benefit?

This law allows vehicle owners to obtain an 80% discount on fines generated for driving without a TAG or failing to pay it on time. To qualify, the fines must be registered in the Unpaid Traffic Fines Registry up until November 30, 2024.

Requirements to qualify for the discount

To benefit from this reduction, you must meet the following conditions:

• The fines must be registered in the Unpaid Traffic Fines Registry by the mentioned date.
• You must not have outstanding debts with highway concessionaires.
• The fines must have been generated within the last five years.
• The bank or concessionaire must not have obtained a court ruling against you before applying for the benefit.

How to obtain the discount?

1. Go to the municipality where you will renew your vehicle registration and request the 80% discount on TAG fines.
2. Sign a payment agreement if you cannot pay the total amount in one installment. You can pay in up to 48 interest-free installments.
3. Pay the first installment or the total amount, and the fines will be removed from the system.

Important considerations

• This benefit does not apply to debts owed to concessionaires, only to fines for driving without a TAG.
• It is recommended to complete the process before March 31, 2025, to avoid issues with renewing your vehicle registration.
