Stolen plates? Tell us when you call — that route needs different paperwork.
VYN is a private registration service, not a DMV office. We are licensed by the California DMV as a registration service (Occupational License #82554) and we do the paperwork for you. Government fees are set by the DMV and are separate from our service fee.
What we can help with
Plates, cards and stickers each have their own replacement transaction. We will tell you which one yours is.
- License plates
- Registration cards
- Registration stickers
- Lost registration documents
- Stolen registration documents
- Damaged plates or registration items
How it works
We check the record
We look at what the DMV is asking for on your vehicle and tell you exactly which documents to bring.
We file the replacement
We complete the right application for your situation so the replacement is issued against your vehicle record.
What to bring
- Valid identification
- Any remaining plates or registration documents you still have
- A police report number, if the items were stolen
- Any DMV notice about the vehicle
Not sure?
Stolen items and unusual record problems can need extra documentation. Call first and we will tell you what your case takes.
Fees and requirements vary. Eligibility, government fees and processing time depend on the vehicle record and the transaction. We confirm your exact situation before anything is filed.
What it costs
Two separate numbers, and we never blend them into one.
Our service fee
What VYN charges to handle the transaction for you. We quote it before anything is filed, so you always know it up front. Call and we will give you the number in a minute — free, no obligation.
DMV fees
Set by the state, not by us. They depend on your vehicle and on the transaction, and they are paid to the DMV. We show you the exact amount, always separate from our fee.

Questions people ask
My plates were stolen. Is that different from losing them?
Yes. A stolen plate is usually replaced with a new plate number rather than a copy of the old one, and additional documentation may be required. Mention it when you contact us.
Can I replace just the sticker?
Often yes. A lost or damaged sticker has its own replacement transaction and does not always mean replacing the plate. We check your record first.
Where are you located?
3411 Tweedy Blvd Ste E, South Gate, CA 90280. We are open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
Are DMV fees included in your service fee?
No. Government fees are set by the DMV and are always separate from our service fee. They depend on your vehicle and the transaction.
Are you a DMV office?
No. We are a privately owned business licensed by the California DMV as a registration service, Occupational License #82554. We are not a branch of the DMV.
