Of course. You can order picture or professional plates for passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and motorcycles.
That's what I would like to do. Can I order by phone as well?
Yes, you can order by phone, however it's faster and easier to do it online. Call the Custom Plates Unit at 1-518-402-4838. Office hours are 8:00am - 4:00pm, Monday through Friday.
I'd also like to learn more about personalized plate transfer. So I'll be able to move my current customized plates to a new vehicle I'm planning to purchase soon?
Yes certainly.
I don't want to go to the DMV due to past bad experiences, must I?
The replacement or transfer personalized plates is not done at the DMV.
Oh good. And if I want to park my car and not use it, can I get my money back for my custom plates until I use it?
In that case, the online custom plate order system can not give you credit for the custom plate fees you have already paid on your current registration.
It sounds like I can get it though, who gives the credit?
Yes the Custom Plates Unit can give you credit.
How much is a picture plate per year?
