Ontario, renew your license plates

More info from Ontario.ca

Your vehicle must have a valid licence plate and be insured to drive legally in Ontario. The licence plate renewal period varies depending on type of vehicle and if you choose to renew for 1 or 2 years.

Owners of passenger vehicles, light duty vehicles under 3,000 kg, motorcycles and mopeds must renew licence plates every 1 or 2 years, usually before your birthday.

When you renew:

• you will no longer receive a sticker
• you do not have to pay licence plate renewal fees
• law enforcement will be instantly aware your licence plate was renewed
