A 5379 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Revises process for reporting lost or stolen registration plates to law enforcement agencies and MVC.

This bill (A5379) updates New Jersey's process for reporting lost or stolen vehicle registration plates. It requires owners to file a report with law enforcement (not just notify) within their jurisdiction, and mandates that police provide a trackable case number within 24 hours. Owners must then notify the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) with the case number and a completed status form, which the MVC will update to include the case number and mark plates as lost/stolen. The changes aim to streamline plate replacement and improve tracking to prevent misuse.
