Document Replacement

If you are a previous customer and you have lost your license plate, registration, or title, we will replace it for you. Simply choose the document or documents needed and the state that it was issued in.

If you have not yet received your license plate, registration, or title and it has already been mailed to you, we will replace it at no charge. Simply contact us.

What a replacement costs depends on which document you need and which state issued it, because each state sets its own fee. Check current pricing.

We may need a notarized authorization form completed if we no longer have one on file for your vehicle. If that applies to you we will send it over. Our documents guide explains what each form is for.

What We Will Ask You For

Once you have picked the state and the document, these are the details the replacement request needs.

Registered Owner's Name

Required

The name exactly as it appears on the record, which for a Montana registration is usually your LLC rather than you personally.

VIN Number (for SD, AZ, VT, MT) or PIN (for Utah)

Required

Enter the VIN, or the PIN if the state is Utah, for your vehicle. This can be found on your vehicle registration, title, or renewal notice. For Utah, the PIN is printed on your renewal notice.

License Plate Number

Optional

Enter your license plate number. If the plate is the thing that went missing, the VIN on its own is enough to find the record.

Has your mailing address changed?

Required

A straight yes or no, so we know where the replacement should be sent.

Choices: No · Yes

Updated Mailing Address

Required

The current address the replacement document should be mailed to.

Disclaimer

Required

You must be a previous customer to use this service. If you did not receive a license plate, registration, or title from us, then we will not be able to replace any documents for you.

NOTE: If your tag has been expired for months, an additional fee may be owed. We will contact you if applicable.

Confirmation: I understand.

Questions, Answered

No. You must be a previous customer. If the license plate, registration or title did not come from us, we will not be able to replace it for you. If you have not registered with us yet, start with the service finder instead.
License Plate is a replacement plate on its own. Registration is the paper registration document you keep with the vehicle. License Plate & Registration orders both together, which is the usual choice when a plate goes missing along with everything in the glovebox. Title is a duplicate certificate of title from the state that issued the original.
No. If we have already mailed your license plate, registration or title and it has not reached you, we will replace it at no charge. Contact us rather than placing a new order.
The state that issued the document, not the state you live in. We replace documents issued by South Dakota, Arizona, Vermont, Utah and Montana. Your existing registration or title will name the issuing state at the top.
Your VIN appears on your registration, your title and any renewal notice, as well as on the vehicle itself. For a Utah record we use a PIN rather than a VIN, and the PIN is printed on your renewal notice.
Sometimes. We may need a notarized authorization form completed if we no longer have one on file for your vehicle. We will tell you if that applies and send you the form.
It can. An additional fee may be owed to the issuing state before a replacement can be produced. We will contact you if that applies before anything moves forward.
No. We are a private, third-party service and are not affiliated with any government agency. We prepare and submit the replacement paperwork so you do not have to.
It depends on which document you need and which state issued it, because each state sets its own fee. Check current pricing, or contact us with your vehicle details and we will confirm the cost before anything is charged.
