Minnesota's lookup also flags plates the state won't allow, so we can tell you when a plate is rejected rather than just taken.
Every state also reviews requests for offensive or misleading plates, and can refuse one even if it shows as open.

Plates come back when people let them go. Instead of checking by hand, add the plate to your watch list, or set a
snipe like "any 3-letter Minnesota plate", and we'll message you on Discord the moment one opens.
Order it from Minnesota on the official ordering page. You'll usually need your current registration details.
Pay the personalized plate fee. It's on top of normal registration - check the official page for the current amount.
Wait for review. Minnesota reviews every request, then makes and sends the plates.
