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 CLIENT yet, or we don't cover them - see all states.
CLIENT is open in 89% of this week's official checks - more open than the average 6-character plate we check (73% open).
If CLIENT is gone where you live, try it with something added - this week: CLIENTS open in 16 of 16 states checked.
We haven't seen a state turn CLIENT down on review. 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.
Plates come back when owners let them go. Watch CLIENT free and we'll tell you the moment it opens in your state.
In the last 7 days, CLIENT was open in 16 of 18 states we checked on official DMV sites (Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington, Washington DC and West Virginia). Availability changes, so check it again before you order.
Yes. Add CLIENT to your watch list in the VanityPlate dashboard and we'll message you the moment a state shows it as open.
Order it from your state's DMV. Check that CLIENT is open in your state, make sure it fits the state's rules, then order and pay the personalized plate fee. Every state reviews requests before making the plate.
