My understanding is that inspection stations, including dealers, print stickers on demand with required electronic approval from the state. Without the state providing the approval mechanism, stickers cannot be printed, including at dealers. The only thing the inspection stations keep on hand is a supply of blank templates that they get from the state in bulk, based on past usage. I doubt they even have those for 2026. Why produce $$$ and ship $$$ 2026 blanks when the need for them had been legally eliminated as of June 2025? No one would have a "supply" of stickers that were probably never created.
