How TOP tracking works in Georgia
Every retail sale starts two clocks. The dealer must apply for the buyer's title within 30 days of the sale, and the Temporary Operating Permit (TOP) the dealer issues expires 45 days from the purchase date under Georgia law. If the title isn't done within five days of the TOP expiring (day 40), the buyer may get one 30 day TOP at the County Tag Office with Form T226.
Late title applications can bring a $10 penalty plus 5% of the TAVT for each 30 days late (Georgia DOR). See the full Georgia tag and title deadline guide.
