Attention Alaska! Effective immediately we will only be issuing one license plate to customers.
The law has now changed to require that all vehicles are only required to display one registration plate. For noncommercial vehicles the plate is required to be displayed on the rear of the vehicle and for commercial vehicles the plate is required to be displayed on the front of the vehicle.
The plate with the month/year tab must be displayed either in the front or the back, depending on if it’s registered commercially or noncommercially
How do you know if your vehicle is registered commercially?
The law that passed yesterday uses the Department of Transportations (DOT) definition of commercial motor vehicle. For more information, please see the link below.
