Do i need a license to buy a car from an owner and buy tags?
According to the website listed below, you do need to present a drivers license to obtain replacement plates. Go to the link below. there is alot of info on this website. Hope this helps. I copied and pasted this from the website: To obtain replacement plates: In person: Visit your local DMV; make an appointment for faster service. Present a valid California driver license or identification card. or Out-of-state or out-of-country driver license or identification card and one of the following secondary photo identifications: A valid passport Military identification card Identification card issued by a state or United States government agency Student identification card issued by a college or university Identification card issued by a California-based employer .
