Question 6: What if I have a lost, damaged or stolen sticker or plate?

What should I do if my registration sticker or license plates are lost, damaged or stolen, or I need to replace them?

Plates and stickers can be replaced on a currently registered vehicle for the registered owner with an Application for Replacement License Plates and/or Registration Sticker (VTR-60) and a fee of $6.50.

An application form (VTR-60) is available in the “Most Requested” Forms list at Texas Department of Motor Vehicles website or by email request to mvt@tarrantcountytx.gov.  An acceptable form of ID is also required.

Application, fees, and additional documentation, if any, can be mailed or placed in the secure drop box. A drop box is available inside select Tax Office locations.
