The original fee may only be waived on a transfer when the plate owner remains as the registered owner, such as the addition or deletion of a co-owner. The new owner must also complete a separate REG 17 form and pay the original fee for the license plates even though the license plates are already on the vehicle. If the license plate owner does not complete and sign a release of priority, the license plates must be surrendered to DMV, unless the vehicle is being transferred between spouses, parents, children, or grandparents. To retain the license plates, a Special Interest License Plate Application (REG 17) form completed by the license plate owner of record must be submitted with the transfer application showing they are releasing interest. Most personalized and/or special interest license plates may remain on a vehicle being transferred if the license plate owner of record releases his/her priority.
