You might have changed your address and didn't inform the Auditor's office, your tax bill was sent to the previous address. You must be needed to change your address with the SC Department of Motor Vehicles so they could forward the details to the Auditor's office. Please inform the SC Department of Motor Vehicles so they can change the registration of your vehicle to the new location.
For the tax bill, please call the Auditor's office at 803-576-2600.
If your vehicle is purchased from a dealer and he got a tag for you then according to the law, the Auditor can not send you a bill until 120 days. If you don't pay the tax bill, the Treasurer's office will send you a suspension letter on the unpaid tax. Once you clear the taxes, the suspension will be lifted.
The tax department of the county does not charge a penalty if you pay vehicle tax after the due date but if you received a notice from SCDMV, you most probably had not renewed the tag on time. You can contact the Richland County Auditor's office at 803-576-2600 if the penalty fee was incurred due to a billing issue.
