Do I Need to Drive the New Car to the DMV for License Plate Registration?

License plate registration requires vehicle inspection and photography, so you need to drive the car there. Below is extended information on the procedure for replacing a license plate: Documents to bring: In addition to the vehicle's registration certificate and your ID card, be sure to bring the motor vehicle registration certificate if it has already been processed. For company vehicles, also bring the organization code certificate. Specific procedure: The owner first fills out a license plate replacement application form at the DMV branch office. For company vehicles, the form must be stamped with the company seal before submission to the DMV. The DMV will then issue a police receipt and a temporary license plate. The temporary plate should be affixed to a prominent location on the vehicle's front windshield for police inspection. Using a temporary plate does not affect the annual inspection. If only one license plate is lost, the old plate must be surrendered when applying for a replacement.
