How Many Days Does It Take to Get License Plates at the DMV?

[StevenMarie]

Normally, it takes 7-15 working days to get license plates at the DMV. Analysis of different scenarios for obtaining license plates: On-site number selection: If the car owner chooses the on-site selection method (such as 10-choose-1 or 50-choose-1), they can usually get the official license plates immediately, as these plates have already been made and can be handed over right after selection. Online number selection: If the car owner opts for self-compiled selection or online number selection, it typically takes about 7-15 working days for the plates to be made before the owner is notified to collect them. If the DMV is far away, the plates can also be mailed. The staff will send them via EMS or regular postal service, which usually takes an additional 2-3 days.
