It is hard to find, but it appears New York owns the plates, and if you move to another state, you probably need to mail the plates back to New York to be safe. Here is the link, rather long, http://www.nysdmv.com/regtransfer.htm and I have pasted the relevant part of it below.

How to surrender vehicle plates by mail:

You can send the vehicle plates to the DMV from any location. There is no fee to surrender your vehicle plates by mail to the address below. If you surrender the plates by mail to a county motor vehicle office instead of a state DMV office, you must enclose a $1 processing fee.

When you surrender vehicle plates by mail, the DMV considers the postmark date as the date that you surrendered your vehicle plates. Make sure that you include your current mailing address. The DMV will mail your FS-6T receipt to you. To be notified by the US Postal Service that your vehicle plates were received, send them by registered or certified mail, and request a return receipt. Remove frames and fasteners before you surrender a vehicle plate or vehicle plates. The DMV office will not accept a vehicle plate with a frame or any fasteners attached.

Send your vehicle plates and other information to:

Department of Motor Vehicles
2799 Route 112
Medford, NY 11763

Hang it on the wall of your garage. In 100 years, it may be worth a dollar or two.

You need to send it back to NYS, or download a lost plate affidavit to mail in to NYS.

Register your car Texas if they ask for the plates give them up if not don't worry. NY will be notify if they request the plates back send them if not keep them.

You should call the DMV to find out the proper procedure, but I'm quite positive that you have to turn the plates back in to the state of NY to avoid fines.

you should mail it to the ny dmv and request a receipt this will keep you from having fines and taxes due in ny. also ask for a property tax proration this could help you get a portion of your ny taxes back.
