Missing Box(es) of Plates

DMV can begin a tracking process one week after the confirmation letter is received. If the missing box is found,

it will be shipped to you. If the missing box cannot be located, DMV must have confirmation from the delivery

service that there is no record of delivery before a replacement box can be sent to you. If you eventually receive

the missing box, call the Dealer Plate Issuance Unit at (518) 473-3565 for further instructions. DO NOT USE

THESE PLATES BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT BE PROCESSED BY DMV IF THEY ARE ISSUED

AFTER THEY WERE REPORTED MISSING.

Stolen or Lost Plates

If you confirm to DMV that you have received plates, and subsequently discover that any registration number or

any box of plates is lost or stolen, you must:

immediately notify your local police agency of the loss or theft and obtain form MV-78B “Report of Lost,

Stolen, or Confiscated Motor Vehicles Items” (see Attachment M); and

immediately notify the Dealer Plate Issuance Unit in writing, on your business letterhead, of the loss or theft.

Attach a copy of the police report and the original MV-78B that was completed (do not send a photocopy).

Inventory Control Procedures

Once you have confirmed your shipment of plates, they must be kept in a secure, locked and limited-access

location.

Issuing Plates in Sequential Order

You must issue plates in sequential order. Consider the following example where a shipment consists of three

boxes of twenty-five plates each:

Box one contains plate sequence 96XA00 - 96XA24.

Box two contains plate sequence 96XA25 - 96XA49.

Box three contains plate sequence 96XA50 - 96XA74.

Box one contains the lowest sequence, so it must be the first box used. Do not issue plates from box one out of

sequence. Do not open or issue any plates from the next box until you have issued all of the plates in box one,

and so on.

When you first open a box of plates, examine all the plates in that box, and verify the plate numbers with the

confirmation letter. If there are any plates missing entirely or mutilated, you must immediately notify DMV in

writing using your business letterhead. Send the letter, along with any mutilated plate(s), to the Dealer Plate

Issuance Unit.

Once DMV receives your notification and any plates, replacement plates will be shipped to you at no charge.
