Chapter 9. Dealer Plate Advisory Return of All Dealer Plates Required on Sale or Termination of the Dealership The Registrar issues Dealer Plates to a specific applicant based upon that applicant's qualifications for Dealer Plates. The Dealer Plates do not become part of the dealership assets once issued and cannot be re-assigned to or used by a successor in interest to the dealership. If the dealership business is sold, ceases to operate or if any applicable license, or permit is suspended or revoked by the issuing authority, the dealer must return all issued Dealer Plates to the Registrar at the final close of business or prior to a takeover by a new owner, or when a Dealer's license or permit has been suspended or revoked. A dealer's failure to turn-in and account for all issued Dealer Plates may result in the Registrar refusing to issue any new General Registration of any type to that person in the future.
