Motor Vehicle Registry 

• In The Northeastern Commonwealth, anything relating to motor vehicles is overseen by the Northeastern Commonwealth Department of Motor Vehicles (NECDMV), a sub agency of the Federal Transportation and Motor Vehicle Commission (FTMVC). 

  • Acquiring a license.

  • Getting a license unsuspended/unrevoked/reactivated.

  • Getting a physical license.

• The Provinces only have control over the design of the license plate.

  • Whatever Province you register in is the license plate design you will be given.

  • Provinces do not have their own DMVs that can deal with licenses, however, each Province does have a Motor Vehicle Commission to deal with other motor vehicle regulations and issues.

• Their setup of office locations is just like the Postal Service, where locations exist all around in different municipalities, where you can go in to deal with DMV issues.

  • The only exception are offices where you get a license unsuspended/unrevoked. Those special DMV offices are only found in county and provincial capitals.

  • A lot of locations are a joint DMV & Postal Service building, where the DMV might be located on the secondfloor or in an attached room/building.

All license plates follow the same standards in terms of location information on the plates, plate size, and where plates must be displayed on a vehicle.

• At minimum, plates must be displayed in full on the rear of a vehicle, for ease to law enforcement.

  • Registration Sticker

  • License plate number

  • Month of Birth

  • Province Name

• Front plates are optional, and citizens may choose to make them vanity plates.

• Vanity plates can be purchased from the NECDMV (custom text plates, as long as they are appropriate) for a cost of 60$ a year. There must be a valid "VANITY PLATE" text on someones license card.
