How to order a graphic licence plate

You can order a graphic plate at any ServiceOntario centre.

Some centres already have the most popular graphic licence plates on hand (e.g. loon, trillium, or your favourite sports teams) – so you may not have to wait for the plate to be delivered.

Graphic licence plates are available with a choice of English or French slogan.
