Are you ready to register or change your vehicle registration with the Nevada DMV and get your UNLV license plate for your car, truck, RV, motorcycle, or small trailer? Here are some tips to help register your vehicle and show your Rebel Pride every day!
Standard Plates
New Vehicle Registration
When buying a new or used vehicle, ask the dealer to register your vehicle with the UNLV 2018 plate. Many car dealers provide this option to you. If you are registering your vehicle on your own, review the Nevada DMV’s website for required documentation and ask for the UNLV 2018 plates when you register your vehicle.
Renewal/Change to Existing Registration
If your registration is up for renewal (expired or within 35 days of expiration), complete a smog check as required. To get the UNLV plate, you must visit a Nevada DMV office. At the office, remove your current plates and take with you along with proof of registration, smog check, and renewal notice. At the counter, ask to swap out your old plates with a UNLV 2018 plate and renew your registration.
Personalized Plates
New Vehicle Registration
Visit the Nevada DMV with your completed Form SP 66 (enter style: UNLV 2018), required documentation for your new vehicle, and old plates off your vehicle (if replacing). The Nevada DMV will collect payment and issue a 60-day temporary movement permit for your vehicle. When your plates are ready, they will be shipped to your address. Allow 4-6 weeks for approval and production.
