Your personalized licence plate must be activated before it is placed on your vehicle.
Please note that you cannot order a personalized licence plate to offer or sell to another person.
Important: Your personalized licence plate must be activated within 48 months of the date you receive it. Otherwise, the character combination becomes available and may be used by another person as of the day following the end of the 48-month period.
Replace the licence plate already on the vehicle with the personalized licence plate you have just activated.
Please note that the owner of a road vehicle who drives his or her vehicle or who allows the vehicle to be driven with a non-activated personalized licence plate is committing an offence and liable to a fine of $100 to $200.
$35.07 (taxes included)
Note that these annual fees are charged even if you have not activated your personalized licence plate or the vehicle associated with the licence plate has been put into storage, discarded or prohibited from being put into operation.
The acquisition and annual fees for a personalized licence plate are not reimbursable.
The annual fees will be charged each year through a statement of account. This statement will be sent to you in the weeks following your birthday.
Please note that the invoicing date for the annual fees for a personalized licence plate that is associated with a vehicle that is co-owned, co-leased or owned by a trust is based on the date on which the personalized licence plate was mailed.
A personalized licence plate can be replaced by a standard licence plate or by another licence plate with the same character combination. Please note, however, that you must return the personalized licence plate you wish to have reprinted to the SAAQ.
The reprinting of a personalized licence plate is only permitted when you return your personalized licence plate to the SAAQ.
A personalized licence plate reported missing or stolen cannot be replaced by a licence plate with the same character combination. You must go to a service outlet to obtain a standard licence plate.
