Is CHOSE available as a vanity plate?

CHOSE is open in 16 of the 20 states where we checked it on the official DMV site in the last 7 days: California, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Montana and North Dakota and more. It also showed open in Oregon, Texas and Wyoming, but those checks are older or per-county, so they're marked * below.

CHOSE in every state we check

The summary above counts every official DMV answer from the last 7 days. * Not counted: the check is older than 7 days, it's Wyoming's per-county search, or it comes from a registration lookup or an imported plate list ("Likely open" rows). Not allowed means the state's site rejected the text itself - usually its length or characters. "Since" is when we first saw the current status. States not listed haven't been checked for CHOSE yet, or we don't cover them - see all states.

CHOSE by the numbers

CHOSE is open in 80% of this week's official checks - more open than the average 5-character plate we check (65% open).

Longer plates built on CHOSE

If CHOSE is gone where you live, try it with something added - this week: CHOSES open in 18 of 18; CHOSEN open in 1 of 18 states checked.

Has any state refused CHOSE?

CHOSE doesn't fit the plate rules in Hawaii - the state's site marked it Not allowed (usually too long, too short or a format the state reserves), so it can't be ordered there.

We haven't seen a state turn CHOSE down on review anywhere else. That's a good sign - but every state reviews requests, so it can still be refused.

Worried about rejection? The dashboard's rejection risk check reads a plate the way DMV reviewers do. See plates states have rejected.
