Is DC a 2 plate state?


Is DC a 2 plate state? There are currently twenty-nine states, including Washington D.C., that require you to have a front license plate mounted on your vehicle. In 2020, Ohio removed its front plate requirement.


Why is DC not a state?

Washington, DC, isn't a state; it's a district. DC stands for District of Columbia. Its creation comes directly from the US Constitution, which provides that the district, not exceeding 10 Miles square, would become the Seat of the Government of the United States.


Can you park in DC without DC plates?

If you park or operate a vehicle in public space in the District of Columbia for 60 consecutive days, the vehicle must be registered and display a valid DC DMV inspection sticker and tags. DC's Department of Public Works (DPW) monitors for automobiles that are not in compliance with DC registration requirements.
