Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to register a private car in Jalisco in 2026?
The official fee is $2,240 MXN for plates and the registration card for a private passenger car, per the 2026 Jalisco state Ley de Ingresos.
Are plates for electric cars the same price?
No. 100% electric vehicles are classified as ecological vehicles and the fee for the first plate issuance is calculated case by case at UNIRSE. It's usually lower than a regular passenger car, but it's not an automatic exemption. Ask Pepe to quote you before you go.
How long does plate registration take?
With all documents and a confirmed appointment, the procedure is completed the same day (1–2 hours at the window). If physical inspection is needed, add another Wednesday visit.
