You may register your vehicle at any DMV customer service center. DMV will issue you two license plates with decals showing the expiration date and a registration card.
Please follow the process below:
- Place the decals on the plates.
- Place the plates on the front and rear of your vehicle.
- Keep the registration card in your vehicle at all times.
To purchase new Virginia license plates, complete form VSA-14.
You may choose to register your vehicle for one or two years. Two-year registration costs twice the annual fee and provides a convenient way for you to register with DMV. The two-year registration option is not available for vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 55,000 lbs. or more, or vehicles registered under the International Registration Plan.
