How can I safely remove my license plate year sticker to transfer it to my new plates?

Question

I just got personalized license plates, and I need to transfer my "07" registration plate sticker from my old plates to put on my new ones. Is it possible to do this without ruining the sticker? I don't want to have to pay the registration fee again.

Answer 1

well you cant there it is illegal you need to buy another sticker but if you said you just got personalized plates then you should have got a new sticker with it sound to Me like you are trying to avoid paying for a sticker in the first place ... when the police if they do ever run your plates they will know automatically if you registration is up to date... not a good idea...

It is almost impossible to remove the license plate sticker from a plate to transfer to another, because of the adhesive that is used on the sticker. The reason why they chose this kind of adhesive, and the material for the sticker which will tear easily , is to prevent people from doing the very thing you are attempting to do.

Answer 5

I believe this is illegal. You registration card will indicate that your current plate is legal, until time for the next annual sticker update.

plus, any law enforcement officer that pulls you over will have already checked your registration by radio or by computer - if they catch you at a routine license checkpoint - you will have your registration card

So No Problem -- The ones who have problems with those registration stickers are the ones who are gaming and scamming to cover illegal, expired, or stolen license plates.

You should not have to pay a registration fee again. The new License plates would come witht he sticker. Ask the Dept. of Motor Vehicles, it should be included with the new license plates.

You can't legally do that. Look closely at the sticker. It has a serial number on it. That number is linked in the DMV system to your old tag. If you move the sticker, it will not match. If you are stopped, the cops will check this and you'll be cited for improper use of tabs or possibly unregistered vehicle.

Check with your DMV. Some states don't issue tabs for personalized tags. They require you to keep the old tags in the vehicle at all times and keep the tabs current on them. You can just throw them in the trunk, you don't need to display them.

If your state issues tabs for personalized tags, it may have been an oversight; just get with the DMV or tag agency and have this taken care of. If there is a fee, you're going to have to pay it, there's no way out of that.

unfortunately it is impossible, believe me. For one, the glue used on those MFs is incredibly strong. Also the sticker itself has slits cut into it so that when people like us try and peel them off to put on another plate, they will shred.
However, if you REALLY want to try something, use a hair dryer. Heat makes glue melt and, if you are successful, you can use some kind of super glue or really strong adhesive to paste it on to your new plate.
But be warned that if you are ever pulled over, you will be required to show the registration for that car or truck and all that info had better match up right or you are talking major fines.
I strongly advise you to suck it up and pay for new registration and save yourself the frustration. But good luck anyway.

The absolutely free reverse vin check sites generally provide fake information. To get real information, money will have to be paid. The free searches provide fake information so they can get your email address to send spam.

Stay away from shady reverse vin check sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse vin check site like http://www.reversevincheck.net that has been around since 1995.
