RCNY § 1-10
(a)Lost license or license plate. A licensee shall immediately report, in an affidavit, the loss of a license or license plate issued to him or her by the Department, requesting the issuance of a new license or plate. Replacement licenses and plates are issued at the discretion of the Department.
(b)Mutilated license or license plate. Should a license or license plate issued by the Department to any licensee become mutilated or otherwise illegible, the holder of the license or plate shall promptly surrender it to the Department and request the issuance of a new license or plate. The request shall be made upon a form provided by the Department.
(c)Fee. A fee of fifteen dollars ($15) shall be charged for the issuance of a replacement license, and a fee of twenty-five dollars ($25) shall be charged for the issuance of a replacement license plate. This fee must be paid when the affidavit for a lost license or plate is filed or when a mutilated or otherwise illegible license or plate is surrendered and a request for the issuance of a new license or plate is filed. This fee will be refunded should the Department decide not to issue the replacement license or plate. This fee shall not be charged if the license or license plate is not received by the licensee and the Department receives a certification from the licensee that such license or license plate was not received within 30 days of the license or license plate being issued.
(d)Lost or stolen records. A licensee shall report to the Department, in an affidavit, the loss or theft of any records required to be maintained by it under Chapters 1 and 2 of Title 20 of the New York City Administrative Code, within ten calendar days of such loss or theft.
