What an Ontario replacement declaration asks for — and how to autofill it with my-id.ca
Complete a replacement declaration without retyping your details
When you need a replacement licence plate, snow vehicle decal, or accessible parking permit, ServiceOntario may require a replacement declaration — and it repeats your name, address, and identifying details. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca.
Official form and source
Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:
- Service page: Replace a lost, stolen or damaged licence plate — ontario.ca
- Also applies to: Get an accessible parking permit — ontario.ca
- Form (Central Forms Repository): Replacement Declaration — 023-sr-lv-040
What this form is about
The replacement declaration confirms what happened to your licence plate, trailer plate, off-road plate, motorized snow vehicle decal, or accessible parking permit — for example, that it was lost, stolen, or damaged — before ServiceOntario issues a replacement.
Before you start: what to gather
- Your name, current address, and date of birth.
- Your driver's licence number or other ID ServiceOntario accepts.
- What you are replacing — plate, decal, or accessible parking permit — and what happened to it.
Confirm the current process on ontario.ca.
