FLORIDA - Miami-Dade residents can now renew their vehicle registrations at the same place they pick up their groceries.
New self-service kiosks have been installed inside several Publix supermarket locations, offering a convenient alternative to visiting the tax collector’s office.
The Miami-Dade County Tax Collector’s Office announced the new initiative this week, highlighting the effort to bring government services into more accessible community spaces.
These kiosks allow drivers to renew and print their vehicle registrations and tag decals in just a few minutes.
Tax Collector Dariel Fernandez said the kiosks are part of a county-wide push to modernize how residents interact with public services.
“We’re focused on making government services more efficient, more responsive, and easier for the public to use,” Fernandez said in a press release.
“Thanks to Publix’s partnership, we’re able to meet residents where they already are—in their neighborhoods.”
Five Publix stores currently offer these kiosks:
- 15771 SW 152nd Street, Miami
- 20201 SW 127th Avenue, Miami
- 7550 NW 104th Avenue, Doral
- 1920 West Avenue, Miami Beach
- 891 N. Homestead Boulevard, Homestead
To use the kiosk, residents will need either their renewal notice or license plate number.
Payments can be made with a debit or credit card, and the machine prints the registration and decal instantly.
For more details on eligibility and services, Miami-Dade drivers can visit mdctaxcollector.gov.
The program reflects a broader shift toward increasing access to essential services through public-private collaboration.
