Reply to comment by Efi_befbi in Did not register my vehicle for 9 months due to not using it and i forgot about it? What will happen if I call to register my vehicle now that I need to use it? by Efi_befbi

if the inspection sticker is current, you should be good to go.

You don't need a sticker to register it. The town doesn't care if you can't drive it if you're still willing to give them tax money for it.

You do need to have it registered to get inspected, however.

I have a history of registering my vehicles up to several months late. The town or city clerk will not even question it. At 150 days expired, operating the vehicle becomes a criminal violation rather than a civil infraction. I’m fairly certain the practice, at least in Cumberland County, is to not arrest the driver solely for that offense anymore, and instead summons them to court. That’s more information than you wanted, but yeah, just register your car; you’ll be golden.
