FAQ's

Q: Can I transfer my plates from my old vehicle to my new vehicle?
A: No only credit can be transferred as long as one owner is consistent on both registrations. 

Personalized plates can be transferred. Colorado license place reissue program, implemented in January 2022, aims to improve safety for first responders and motorists by ensuring drivers have reflective and legible license plates. Under the new program the process for transferring plates has changed.

Q: Will you take a credit card for payment of plates?
A: Yes - Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.

Q: Why didn’t I get a renewal notice?
A: Usually, the address is incorrect. If you have moved within the last year and did not notify our office of your address change, your card will probably be returned to us as undeliverable.
