I lost my plate, what should I do?
You have to report your lost plate and surrender the registration to the DMV. The DMV will issue you a new registration and plate.
How long on average does it take to return the registration and the plate? . My out-of-state title is held by my lienholder, how do I register in New York?
All you need is a copy of the title certificate that has your name from the lienholder.
