A: No, there is no grace period. However, you can go to court and the judge may dismiss the case for compliance if you have proof the vehicle was inspected. Take the receipt and inspection certificate to court with you.

A: I notice your question involves registration, not inspection. There is no grace period. If you have proof that the vehicle was registered take your receipt to court and the judge will likely dismiss the expired tags case for compliance.
