Iowa License Plates
When you buy your first motor vehicle as a resident of Iowa, you will receive two Iowa license plates after paying your registration fees. Your Iowa license plates will show a unique plate number. Iowa license plates follow the driver rather than the car. For example, if you decide to sell your car and buy a replacement once within 30 days, you may use old Iowa license plates on your new car once after paying the necessary registration fees. If your Iowa license plates are damaged lost, you may obtain replacement Iowa license plates at your local county treasurer's office for just $5.
