Vehicle License Plate I Love New York Parks Beach

Requirements

To order this plate, you must currently hold a Sporting License issued by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). The vehicle you are ordering plates for must be registered in your name. This design is now available for your motorcycle plate.

Note: There are restrictions for Commercial plates. Commercial plates must display the word "COMMERCIAL" under the plate number and therefore will not print with the wording "I LOVE NY HUNTING", "I LOVE NY FISHING" or "I LOVE NY PARKS". Commercial plates will print with the I LOVE NY symbol in the upper right-hand corner of the plate.

Fees

The custom plate fee varies if the plate number is assigned by DMV or if you personalize it. Learn more about personalized plates

Destroy Your Old Plates

Once you receive your new plates you will want to destroy your old plates to protect against fraudulent use. Mark each vehicle plate with a permanent marker or cut each plate into pieces. Consider separating the plates when you recycle, and putting one plate in your recycling bin each week. To avoid an inaccurate cancellation of plates, do not return your old plates to DMV.
