How To Turn in Your Alaska License Plates

In Alaska, when a person sells a vehicle, the license plates stay with the seller. The seller must remove the plates from the sold vehicle.

Here are the steps to follow when turning in or transferring license plates after selling a vehicle in Alaska.

  1. Remove the license plates from the vehicle after the sale.
  2. Decide if you will transfer the plates to another vehicle you own or turn them in.
  3. If transferring, bring the plates to the DMV along with the new vehicle’s registration details.
  4. If turning in, take the plates to the local DMV office or mail them to the Alaska DMV.
  5. Complete any required forms provided by the DMV for plate transfer or surrender.
  6. Keep the receipt or confirmation provided by the DMV as proof of plate turn-in or transfer.
  7. Inform your insurance company about the sale and the plate transfer or surrender.
