The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) is issue multi-year/permanent registrations to those customers
who have a commercial trailer or semi-trailer vehicle registered in Ohio.
Multi-year (two to seven years) and permanent (eight years) registrations will allow customers to
purchase multi-year commercial trailer and semi-trailer registrations for up to seven consecutive years
or pay the equivalent of eight years of registration fees to receive a permanent registration plate (for
the life of the trailer, non-transferable).
The permanent registrations will receive a plate with the word "permanent" printed between the
bolt holes and "No Exp" printed (no expiration) at the bottom right hand corner.

Also, BMV will offer company logo plates for customers who have apportioned vehicles registered in Ohio.
