Overdue Fines MUST be paid prior to registration. Alberta law states that all vehicles being operated or parked on public

Please have your proof of insurance before applying to transfer or renew
your license plate(s).

Registration
Costs
Standard (non-commercial) passenger car or truck registration
is $84.45 per year, including G.S.T. The expiry month of your plate is
determined by the first two letters of your last name; the first
time you register a vehicle the cost is adjusted relative to
the number of months until your expiry month (pro-rated).
Motorcycle and Off-Road Vehicle registration is $54.95
per year, including G.S.T. Expiry month calculations are the same as for
car registration, above.
Trailer registration is permanent. There is a one-time
cost of $109.45, including G.S.T.
Antique Car/Truck or Motorcycle registration is permanent.
There is a one-time cost of $39.45, including G.S.T.
Transfer of plate to another vehicle, replacement of a lost
decal, replacement of a lost license plate, etc. -- anything that causes
a new registration to be printed -- costs $22.45, including G.S.T.
Please note: If you have sold your vehicle
and do NOT intend to replace it, you can apply for a refund (pro-rated)
of the time left until the license plate expiry date. The bottom line
is, for passenger plates, you need six or more months left before expiry
to make it worth your while -- due to processing and cancellation fees
-- and the refund is mailed out from Edmonton.
Vanity Plates
Vanity Plates can be ordered through our office. The maximum number of
characters including spaces for a car is 7, for a motorcycle the maximum
number is 5. The cost is $206.85.
