FAQ

Go to your local county tag office to renew your tags as you normally do. When there, let them know you’re interested in the Sedgwick County Zoo or “SCZ Plate.” Please note, you will need to surrender your current tag at that time and you will be issued a temporary tag. Your new tag will be mailed to you within a few weeks from the State.

What does the plate cost?

There is a one-time production charge of $48 plus normal registration fees.

DO I NEED TO LIVE IN WICHITA TO BUY THIS TAG?

What do i do when i need to renew this tag?

Initial purchase of this tag will need to be done in-person at the county tag office. However, as long as you are not making significant changes (new vehicle, etc.), future renewals can be done by mail or online based on instructions found in your renewal notice.

What if I want to get tags for multiple vehicles?
