Drivers face penalties for emissions address fraud
Beginning January 1, 2027, Utah counties and the State Tax Commission may investigate address use to avoid required emissions inspections. A confirmed use of a false or improper address can bring a $1,000 civil penalty. The Motor Vehicle Division or Commission may also suspend or revoke the vehicle’s registration for this evasion. For Commission-imposed penalties, the division cannot issue or renew registration until payment, unless the penalized person no longer owns the vehicle. The Commission may keep penalty money only up to its investigation costs and must send the rest to the county.
