The Fire Chief license plates are available only to the fire chief of a municipal fire department or fire protection district.

A letter from the municipality or fire protection district verifying the individual’s status as a fire chief must accompany the application.

A letter also must be submitted annually with the registration renewal verifying the individual’s status as fire chief.

This request may only be processed in the Springfield Office.

The license plates must be surrendered when the person no longer serves as the fire chief.
