Vehicle Registration

Register Your Car at the Johnson County Tax Office

The Johnson County Tax Office handles vehicle titles and registration — the same office where you pay property taxes.

Texas uses a system called 'Two Steps, One Sticker.' First you get a vehicle inspection. Then you register the vehicle. The registration sticker covers both steps.

Johnson County's tax office is at 2 N. Mill St., Cleburne. You can handle registration there in person. You can also renew online.

Check txdmv.gov for current fees and what documents you need. The tax office phone is 817-558-0122.

New residents moving from another state have 30 days to register their vehicle in Texas. If you miss that window, you could be fined. Check the official source already listed to confirm current rules.
