AUTHENTIC LICENSE PLATE INFORMATION
|
|
A special provision in the law allows a historical vehicle owner to use an authentic Michigan license plate from the same year the historical vehicle was manufactured. The plate can be obtained through a private sale or any other means available.
Reproduction and remanufactured plates as well as authentic dealer and manufacturer plates are not allowed. The plate must display the correct colors for the year of issuance.
Fee: $35 -- Make checks and money orders payable to State of Michigan.
Authentic license plate applications must be submitted by mail. Your request cannot be processed at a Secretary of State office.
Applying for an authentic plate
Send the following items:
A color photocopy, a color scan, or color photograph of the license plate (passenger, commercial, trailer or motorcycle). Do not mail the actual plate. Personalized, government, law enforcement, manufacturer, dealer, in-transit repair, disability and special purpose plates cannot be used as authentic license plates. If in doubt, check with the department before purchasing a license plate.
Your new registration will arrive in about three weeks.
For authentic historical plates issued in 1984 or later (Blue Plates):
Blue plates with a solid blue background and white letters/numbers were issued from 1984-2006.
Blue plates issued in the years preceding and up to the model year of the antique vehicle qualify for use, provided they have a year tab that corresponds to the vehicle’s model year.
The only exception is for the 1984 Blue Plates since tabs weren’t issued until 1985.
