Upon loss, mutilation or destruction of a certificate of
registration, license plate, or validation sticker the owner of
a vehicle may obtain a duplicate certificate of registration,
new license plates or validation stickers from any county
treasurer or the department if the vehicle was registered or
plates or stickers were issued by the department upon
application showing the loss, mutilation or destruction, return
of mutilated plates or stickers and payment of the duplicate
registration, plate or sticker fee. For those vehicles
registered under the provisions of W.S. 31-2-213(h), 31-2-215
through 31-2-223, 31-2-226, 31-2-227 or 31-2-229 through 31-2-
235 replacement duplicate license plates may be obtained upon
application with the county treasurer from which the original
plates were purchased or the department if applicable,
accompanied by fees as provided by W.S. 31-3-102(a)(vi)(C).
Duplicate license plates obtained under this section to replace
lost or stolen plates shall not be displayed on the vehicle
until the validation stickers on the lost or stolen plates have
expired. Upon loss, mutilation or destruction of a dealer plate
or validation sticker the dealer may obtain a replacement dealer
plate or validation sticker from the county treasurer from which
he purchased the original plate in the same manner as the owner
of a vehicle and upon payment of the appropriate fee under W.S.
31-3-102(a)(vi). Obtaining a replacement plate is not the
purchase of an additional plate under W.S. 31-16-125(b)(i). Upon
application for new license plates or stickers the county
treasurer shall notify the department and the county sheriff as
soon as possible of the loss, mutilation or destruction. The
department shall notify the appropriate law enforcement agencies
of any loss, mutilation or destruction of license plates or
stickers.
