- Service Nova Scotia in partnership with the
Department of Natural Resources have developed a new Conservation Licence
Plate that will allow Nova Scotians to show their support for protecting
species at risk in Nova Scotia.
- The Conservation licence plate is now available from any
- Registry
of Motor Vehicle Offices throughout Nova Scotia.
- The Conservation licence plate will be issued in sequential order
to passenger and light commercial vehicles up to 5000 kgs (trucks and
vans) in the name of individuals who choose to support the species at
risk fund.
- The registration
fee for a Conservation licence plate will be the standard fee associated
with the class and weight of the vehicle being registered. An additional
one time $26.10 administration fee and $60.50 donation fee which will be
directed to the Species at Risk Conservation Fund, will also be applied.
- For future renewals, regular plate renewal fees will apply.
Note: Effective January 1, 2004, any time a vehicle
registration (plate) is issued or renewed, insurance information is
required. A Statement
of Insurance form must be completed for in-person and mail requests.
For requests on-line, you must provide this information electronically.

- Applicants may apply to replace their current regular alpha-numeric
licence plate with a conservation plate, at any time, for a donation
fee of $60.50 and an administration fee of $26.10. Applicants do not
have to wait for their normal bi-annual plate renewal.
- The cost of replacing a lost or stolen Conservation licence plate
is $26.10.
- Current Canada Revenue Agency requirements will not allow the donation to be used as a tax deduction.
- The Species at Risk Conservation Fund is administered by the Department
of Natural Resources. Funds received will be used to support initiatives
that help protect Nova Scotia’s species at risk.
- You may obtain more information about the Species at Risk Conservation
Fund by visiting Natural Resources
