Reminder: This is a new license plate year in Tennessee

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WDEF) – Tennessee drivers won’t just be getting a new decal this year.

2022 brings new license plates for the state.

The new, blue plate will be available online, by mail or in-person when you get your motor vehicle registration renewed.

Tennessee gets a new plate design every 8 years.  But this is the most radical redesign since 2006.

Points to note:

• License plates are issued through Tennessee’s local county clerk offices. Motorists can visit www.tncountyclerk.com to renew online.
• New plates can be renewed in person, online, by mail, or by kiosk. If you choose not to renew in person, the renewal fee will include $5 for mailing.
• Motorists are not able to renew early to receive the new license plate. You must wait until your designated renewal month.
