Secretary Land reminds vehicle owners of temporary option
A program to help military personnel and other Michigan motorists who have vehicles they do not drive often is now available from the Secretary of State.
Continued -“Temporary plates are a great option for service members home on leave for a few weeks,” Land said. “Instead of buying a full-year license plate, military personnel and other drivers should consider these less-costly plates.”
A 30-day plate costs one-tenth of the vehicle’s annual registration fee or $20, whichever is more, plus a $10 service fee. A 60-day plate costs one-fifth of the registration fee or $40, whichever is more, plus a $10 service fee. The plate is a paper permit that must be displayed in the vehicle’s rear window.
People can apply for the temporary plates at any Secretary of State office. They will need to bring proof of Michigan no-fault insurance and proof of ownership, such as the vehicle’s Michigan title or expired plate registration.
