What is the meaning of an auto lapsed policy in the state of Georgia? How much is the fee?

Sandy Springs, GA

According to the Georgia Department of Revenue (DOR) a lapse is defined as ten or more days where the records show that your car was not covered by a car insurance policy.

If the auto insurance lapse fee is not paid within thirty days of the letter’s date, the car registration will be suspended. To terminate the suspension, the car owner must now pay the $25 lapse fee in addition to the $60 reinstatement fee as well as show proof of car insurance.

To get more information with regards to an insurance lapse in Georgia you may contact the DOR.
