Things you should know
To qualify for Collector plates, you must own or lease at least one other motor vehicle for regular transportation with current, valid registration in Wisconsin under the same name(s) as the Collector vehicle. Complete section C.
Collector plates are non-expiring for as long as you own the collector vehicle. Vehicles with
Collector plates cannot be operated during
the month of January unless a special temporary plate is purchased. Temporary
plates for January operation are available for
$5 for ive consecutive days or $30 for the month; use form MV2750. Temporary plates are not available
while original applications are being processed.
If you previously had a Collector plate, but no longer own the vehicle, pay the same fee as when applying for a second or subsequent collector registration. See fee schedule.
WisDOT assigns a collector number to each vehicle collector. That number, plus an alpha character, is
issued to other collector vehicles owned by the same person. Collector plates cannot be personalized. For second or subsequent plates, allow approximately
3–4 weeks for the manufacturing process after the Certiicate of Registration has been issued. Except for former military vehicles, truck-type
vehicles with Collector plates cannot haul more than 500 pounds. Do not include the weight
of a camper, lid or cap that is mounted on the truck or the weight of any persons or pets.
