Once you register your car, you should keep your registration card in your vehicle at all times. If you are stopped by an Iowa law enforcement officer, you will be asked to provide both your drivers license and vehicle registration. If you can't produce your car registration at this time, the IA Department of Transportation (DOT) states that you could be fined up to $100.

If your registration card is lost or damaged, you can obtain a replacement by visiting your county treasurer's office to complete a short form. There is no fee for this service, but you should bring your drivers license and your vehicle license plate number.

Replacing Lost or Damaged License Plates and Stickers

The process for replacing lost or damaged license plates and license plate validation stickers is very similar to the process for replacing a vehicle registration card. Simply visit your county treasurer's office to request a replacement. Bring your drivers license and car registration card if you have it available. There is no charge for replacing stickers, but there is a $5 fee to replace a lost or damaged license plate.
