§ 10.811 Expiration of existing certificates of registry.

The expiration year of a certificate of registry issued without an expiration date is calculated by adding 5-year increments to the issuance date of the certificate of registry, up to first applicable year falling between 1995 and 1999, inclusive. The day and month of expiration are the same as that of issuance. Table 10.811 is provided as an aid for calculating the expiration date of a certificate of registry issued without an expiration date. A certificate of registry is not valid for use after the expiration date calculated under this section, but may be renewed in accordance with the requirements of § 10.209.
