Car Owner SearchMore About North Carolina License Plates

North Carolina, like many east coast states, started issuing license plates in the early 1900’s. Starting in 1907 NC license plates were required on all automobiles but they were not provided by the state. Each automobile owner was required to supply their own. It wasn’t until 1915 that North Carolina started issuing these plates and the first one’s were made of porcelain with the numbers painted on. Today, the state issues 2 license plates, made of aluminum that are required only on the rear of the vehicle with current tags.

    There used to be a page where you can search to see if a vanity plate name is available. Does that page still exist? I used it to search availability for both of mine several years ago. How can I tell if one is not in use so I can change a current plate?

    William, we don’t have the ability to show you what is available as far as custom NC license plates go but we can search via the license plate number

  3. William Freshwater says:

    Would be nice to be able to just check for an available custom plate without giving so much information!

    Elvyn, you will need to reach out to the North Carolina DOT directly to inquire about your NC license plate tags. Unfortunately we do not have the ability to look this up for you as we are not affiliated with this government agency. You can contact them online or over the phone about your NC vehicle registration renewal

    I was misled. I typed in the license plate and paid the money to get the identity of the owner. And I received none of that information and was asked for another $10 for further information.
