Can license plate numbers be changed?
1 Answers
No. If the vehicle has already been registered with the DMV, the license plate number cannot be changed. Below is relevant information: 1. Unregistered selected numbers can be changed: After selecting a license plate number through the online DMV vehicle number selection system, the owner must submit the required documents to the DMV within the specified time frame to complete the registration process. If the application is not processed within the deadline, the selected number will automatically become invalid and return to the pool of available numbers. The automatic cancellation of the selected number does not disqualify the vehicle owner from participating in the online pre-selection process again. Alternatively, the owner can visit the DMV service window to select a number through the "20-choose-1" random selection system. 2. Reapplication is possible after transfer: One method is to transfer the vehicle as a used car (first sell the vehicle as a used car, then repurchase a new vehicle with a new license plate). Another method is to transfer the vehicle between spouses (change the vehicle registration to the spouse's name, then repurchase a new vehicle and select a new license plate).
