License Plates

The department administers over 100 specialty license plates.  Contact your local county clerk's office for specialty plate availability.

Use our online application to personalize standard passenger and certain specialty license plates for vehicle and motorcycles for a cost of $35.   This fee is in addition to the regular state registration fee and any applicable county fees and/or specialty plate fees. 

Disabled driver passenger license plates, placards and decals are available to Tennessee residents who meet specific qualifications.

Here, you can find information about surrendering a license plate, as well as information on how to introduce a new specialty plate. You can also view proposed plates that are currently under construction.
