Choose Life Plates FAQ
What if I don’t renew my plates on-line? If you typically renew by mail or by visiting the closest MVD office, you can just go to your local MVD office and order your plates there! Ask for and fill out a Special Plate Application form and they can order Choose Life Special Plates over the counter. The plates are not stocked at MVD offices. Instead, the plate is entered into the system by the Customer Service Representative and is mailed from the Special Plate Office the next day.
​
How much does the Choose Life license plate cost? $25.00 fee (payable to the Motor Vehicle Division) and $25 per year in future renewal years. $17 is donated to the ALC for providing life-affirming hope and resources to the women, men and children of Arizona through truthful and loving education, services, and public policy. The MVD retains $8 for license plate administration. There also may be a nominal charge for mailing expenses.
​
Can I personalize my Choose Life license plate? No, you are not able to personalize your Choose Life license plate. The license plate numbers will be assigned randomly.

​
What if my license plate registration has not expired? MVD will send you your Choose Life license plate with your current registration dates on the plate. MVD is not able to prorate your fee for the months that you have remaining on your registration, so you will pay a $25 special plate fee again at your renewal date. If you have more than 14 months remaining on your registration, the initial fee will be $50 plus $2.00 postage and handling.
​
How will I renew my Choose Life license plate? MVD will automatically include your Choose Life plate on the renewal you receive in the mail.
