Yep. If ya vehicle is all in order you can get it inspected on a wednesday and be driving it legally on a saturday. All depends on how onto it the inspector is.

Yep plate is made by LVVTA somewhere , you will have to take your truck back to certifier to have plate fitted or to someone who is approved by them to have it fitted.

Once the Certifier has signed everything off he hands you a copy of the paper certificate pending the production of the plate.
That paperwork was good enough to show to get a WoF and be able to continue using vehicle until such time the plate is fitted.
At least that was the case a few years back when we did a vehicle certification.
Took the certifier nearly 6 months as the first plate produced was incorrect.
Is that paperwork no longer applicable or acceptable now?

I don't know I'm going to bring that up with my mate who's organising it and who's also doing the WOF will ask tomorrow and see what's up with that. thanks for that piece of information it could yet prove to be very valuable!

From my experience certing cars you cant get a WOF untill the plate is fitted and they need the cert number on it.
Plate took 7 days to arrive for me

The paperwork was acceptable to the WoF place at the time. Actually went through two WoF's no problems before correct plate finally fitted although WoF guy did say that next time plate needed to be fitted.

Hi Ashohman,Use the MV1 form to apply for registration (license plates). If you already have valid Wisconsin license plates in your name, you can transfer them to another vehicle, if it is the same type (example: car to car, or truck to same weight class truck). Write the plate number you want to transfer on the application form.Please reply your suggestions about my post..Keep in touch with us...Thanks in Advance
