How do you get temporary California vehicle tags to bring it to California?


There are no temporary tags, per se, but you can run with temps from your home state until they expire. If you are moving to California, you must begin the registration process within 10 days. If you want to register an out-of-state vehicle, you must get it titled in your home state first.

When you do begin the registration process, you will recieve a temporary registration in the form of a little red piece of paper that you tape to your back window. It is good until the last day of the month indicated on the paper, usually one or two months. Then you must smog it to get your permanent tags.
