I live in New Jersey and I feel like custom license plates are really popular over here. I’d love to get one for myself, but I don’t know if I can afford it! How much does it usually cost to buy a custom license plate in New Jersey?

Buying a custom license plate in
New Jersey
is one of the most affordable ways to personalize your car. The plate itself only costs $50 and the annual renewal fee is only $11—a $5 increase from what you’d need to pay for a standard license plate.
In some states like
California
, custom license plates can cost well over $100 with an annual renewal fee of $50. That said, New Jersey offers custom license plates at a relatively low cost.
Keep in mind that you’ll need to reapply for a custom license plate if your registration lapses for more than two years. In that case, you’ll be required to make another one-time payment of $50 before you can legally register the plate.
