Vehicle inspections
Inspection renewals
Vehicle owners (and drivers operating vehicles) are responsible for getting their vehicles inspected at least once every 4 months at the DMV inspection facility. This a New York state requirement, and you can complete these inspections on your own. This is not done at the TLC's inspection facility and Uber will not help set your appointment.
Please head to any DMV regulated inspection station and they should update your inspection sticker after you complete the inspection.
Failing to comply with inspection requirements may result in summonses, fines, or other penalties from the TLC. You are responsible for your own compliance with the TLC rules, and you are responsible for handling incidents resulting in violations of those rules.
TLC vehicle renewals
1. Submit your renewal package

Before beginning the TLC license renewal process, please note that the TLC expects you to use a current and valid email address with the LARS system. If your email address has changed, the TLC requires you to update it with them.
