Maryland Insurance Administration Advisory on COVID-19 and Motor Vehicle Registrations

BALTIMORE- On March 5, 2020, Governor Lawrence J. Hogan, Jr. declared a State of Emergency for Maryland due to theCOVID-19 virus.As a result of this event the lives and livelihoods of Maryland residents have been adversely affected.Owners of vehicles registered in the State may be looking for ways to cut expenses and may be considering the option of returning registration plates (license plates) and dropping their insurance coverage.Please note that driving an uninsured vehicle is illegal and can result in significant personal liability for damage and injury to others in the event of an accident.

Like most State agencies, the Maryland Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Administration’s (“MDOT MVA”) offices are presently closed to the public. However, license plates can be dropped off at the MDOT MVA’s 24 hour drop boxes in Baltimore City, Columbia, Gaithersburg, Glen Burnie, Salisbury office, Westminster and Walnut Hill.Plates can also be mailed to the Glen Burnie location at 6601 Ritchie Highway, Glen Burnie 21062.You should document the date and time of drop off or mailing of plates by photo, video and / or mailing method.

The MDOT MVA issued the following statement regarding the suspension of insurance lapse fines during the State of Emergency:
