Requesting Sequential Plates Instead of Special Equipment Plates

If you prefer not to have Special Equipment plates for your vehicle, you can easily request sequential plates by following the steps outlined below.

Step 1: Fill Out the REG156 Form

The first step in obtaining sequential plates is to complete a REG156 form. This form serves as your official request for sequential plates instead of Special Equipment plates.

• Access the REG156 Form: You can find the REG156 form online or at your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) office.
• Complete Required Information: Ensure that all necessary fields are filled out accurately to avoid any delays in processing.

Step 2: Include the FORM During Your Transaction

You should include the completed REG156 form during your transaction for transferring ownership or registration of your vehicle. This will ensure that your request is processed alongside other documentation related to your vehicle's transfer.

Tips for Submission:

• Keeps Copies: Always keep copies of submitted forms for your records.
• Avoid Delays: Submit all required documents together to expedite processing time.

Step 3: Communicate with SPU if Necessary

If you're working with a Specific Processing Unit (SPU), it’s recommended that you reach out directly if you have any questions regarding your work order or specific forms needed. Clear communication can help clarify any uncertainties and facilitate a smoother process overall.

• Email Communication: Use email when possible; this provides written documentation of inquiries and responses.
• Cite Reference Numbers: When contacting SPU, always reference relevant numbers associated with your work order for quicker assistance.
