Smog check rules and DMV offices for Pomona

California asks for a smog check at every other registration renewal once a gas or hybrid car is more than eight model years old. Diesels have no age exemption.

Selling a car older than four model years needs a certificate under 90 days old, and a car moving here from another state needs one to register.

Your DMV renewal notice is the final word for an address in Pomona. It says whether this year's renewal needs a check and whether it has to be at a STAR station.

Do I need a STAR station?
Only if your DMV renewal notice says STAR. 20 of Pomona's 26 stations qualify.

How long is a California smog certificate good for?
90 days from the test. A sale or a registration has to happen inside that window.
What is the smog abatement fee?
A yearly DMV fee for cars in their first eight model years, which skip the smog check. It's paid with registration, not at a station.
