You should have a printed copy of your registration as when you registered or renewed and got your sticker, the sheet that the sticker came off of is your proof of registration and it has everything that is needed to prove registration (VIN, title/record, sticker #, plate #).JALLEN wrote:Which places are those?

I have a SUV for which I have a registration receipt that is 8.5x11". And I tow a trailer, same size registration receipt. And my Progressive insurance "card" is 5.5x8". I simply don't have room in my wallet for that. Why oh why can't we simply go to all electronic, or something significantly smaller.
That only works for anyplace that doesn't require showing a copy of your registration inside at a security desk. They don't come outside to check stickers.
The two cars we brought when we moved were registered at the same time. The second year, I went down, got the stickers and put them on the windshields of the wrong car. This was discovered when I took them in for inspection the following year.
Any Federal compound that clears access that I've been to requires that they see the actual registration of the vehicle that is entering the compound, and of course insurance and DL. So you must have either your registration or you must present a rental agreement if it is a rental.
