Missouri Form 1576 – Application for Replacement Plates & Tabs (Fillable PDF)

Form 1576 is the official Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) application used when you need a replacement for lost, stolen, mutilated, destroyed, or never‑received license plates or registration tabs. The form must be notarized before submission, and it includes sections for vehicle details, owner information, and payment.

What Is Form 1576 and When Is It Required?

Missouri drivers file Form 1576 whenever any of the following occurs:

• License plates are lost or stolen.
• Registration tabs are missing, damaged, or never received.
• Plates are mutilated, destroyed by fire, flood, or other accident.
• You need a duplicate set because the original was never delivered.

The form is processed by the Missouri DOR and must be accompanied by the appropriate fee and a notarized signature.

Common Mistakes & Tips for a Successful Submission

• Missing notarization: The DOR will reject the form without a notarized signature.
\n
• Incorrect VIN: Double‑check the Vehicle Identification Number; a typo can delay processing.
• Fee amount: Verify the current replacement fee on the DOR website before paying.
• Incomplete sections: Leave no required field blank; use “N/A” only when the form explicitly allows it.

Following these tips helps ensure a quick turnaround and avoids unnecessary trips to the DOR office.
