Title And Registration

Registration ID Cards

The Registration ID card is located on the Vehicle Registration Renewal Notice you receive in the mail. It contains your personal vehicle information that is documented with the Secretary of State's office, your mailing address and the State Seal.

Illinois law requires the registration ID card to be carried in all second-division vehicles weighing more than 8,000 pounds. Because some of our neighboring states require the ID card to be carried in all vehicles, we suggest that all Illinois motorists carry the ID cards in their vehicles.

You must obtain a corrected or duplicate ID card if:

• Any information, such as name or vehicle information, is incorrect. The fee is $3.
• You recently were married and changed names. The fee is $3.
• You go from an individual to a sole proprietorship. The fee is $3. You must also submit a statement and Corrected Title.
• You form a partnership, merge or change your corporate name. The fee is $3. You must also submit a copy of the merger documentation or a copy of the amendment to the articles of incorporation. You may also have to submit a Corrected Title.

When applying for a corrected registration ID card, a Corrected Title may also be required.
