The ADM 399 form, also called the Application for Refund, lets California residents and businesses request reimbursement from the DMV for fees paid in error or excess. It covers vehicle and vessel registration, driver licenses, identification cards, occupational licenses, and miscellaneous certificate fees.
To qualify, applicants must have paid the fee to the California DMV within the past three years. Common qualifying reasons include duplicate payments, fees collected in error, and registration fees paid after a vehicle sale. Parking fees, use tax, and weight fees are managed by separate agencies and are not covered under this form.
When submitting the application, include supporting documents such as DMV receipts, proof of payment, and relevant registration or license certificates. The form requires the payment method, exact refund amount, and a clear reason for the request.
