What is needed for a new resident to obtain Minnesota title and license plates?
A person has 60 days after becoming a resident (as long as their out of state plates are current) to obtain Minnesota license plates. Items needed to complete the transaction are: • Current registration card or title. • Proof of Minnesota no-fault insurance. • Odometer reading. • Lien holder name and address (if vehicle is financed). • Driver’s license or identification card. Fees can be paid by cash, check (pre-printed with your name and address located within the seven-county metro area) or money order. An estimate of fees can be obtained by contacting the Motor Vehicle Office.
