License Applications, Renewals and Summonses (LARS)

• Make a license renewal payment
  • A payment made using LARS does not mean that your license will be approved for renewal.
  • To obtain information on renewal requirements for your license type click on one of the links below:
    • Bases / Businesses
    • Driver
    • Medallion Owners & Agents
    • SHL Permit Holder
    • Vehicle-FHV, Paratransit & Commuter Van
• Apply for a new license (New Driver or New Vehicle Application)
• Update your personal information online
• Plead guilty or pay summons
  • Only a summons where no personal appearance is required can be paid on LARS. If you have an open summons, check to see if the “Personal Appearance Required” box checked

Most of the transactions on LARS are available to current Drivers, Vehicle Owners, Medallion Owners, Agents, SHL Permit holders, Bases and Businesses. Unlicensed entities can also plead guilty and/or pay a TLC-issued summons online by using the Summons number.
