FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

“I JUST MOVED TO LOUISIANA. WHAT SHOULD I DO?”

If you recently moved to Louisiana and have an out-of-state license plate, you CAN NOT use the online or phone method to order your plate.  You must go to the DMV and discuss this with them.  They might require you to go to Baton Rouge.  Or, you can get a normal Louisiana plate and then use the methods above to get a “Louisiana is Better with ME 100% Drug-Free” plate.

“I THOUGHT SEYMORE’S “LOUISIANA IS BETTER WITH ME 100% DRUG-FREE” PLATE WAS ONLY $25?  WHY WAS I CHARGED MORE?”

The “Louisiana is Better with ME 100% Drug-Free” plate fee is $25 per year.  Since the LA DMV registers plates are on a two-year cycle, the fee for Seymore’s “Drug-Free” plate is $50, plus state handling fees.  Any cost over this amount is the PRORATED COST owed on your normal license registration.
