CA confidential plates

[Miller Time]

When you sell your vehicle, does it remove the confidental plates "tag" with DMV? I recently sold two of my cars, both had DMV registered confidentiality with my agency.

Will DMV take off the confidental plates or do I have to send up another form to remove them?

Thanks!

You should try calling the DMV. :/

They eventually get removed as confidential information in the DMV return... if you sold them make certain you did a release of liability.

There is a section on the confidentiality form, towards the bottom, to have plates/VIN's removed. You need to submit that to DMV. It can be done on the same form you submit for your new vehicle, if there is one. Otherwise, just send in the form with the removals.

10-4, thanks for the info fellas. I'll get on it then.

They automatically removed mine when I sold my last car.

All you have to do is fill out the "release o liability" form and they will automatically remove the confidentiality from the plate. You do not need to fill out another confidentiality form to remove it, unless you are keeping the vehicle.

On another note, when you pay off a car and have the lien holder removed from the title, the confidentiality will be removed and you have to re-submit it.

I found out that when you change th einfo on the registration, they remove the confidentiality. I had to re-apply couple of times.

Send in the release like everybody says. That does it.

Damn...thanks for the heads up. I have two cars paid off in the last year and didn't know I had to re-submit.

I never had that problem, the confidentiality stayed on my cars after I paid them off.
