What is a Florida Specialty Plate?
A Florida Specialty Plate is a registration tag for vehicles that differs from the conventional plate you’d get from the FLHSMV (Florida’s DMV) upon registering your car, truck, or SUV for the first time.
What make a Florida Specialty Plate different?
These tags are different for a few reasons.
- There are over one hundred unique designs to choose from. Yep, you can browse through a really big selection of motifs available in the FLHSMV catalog.
- The designs are more than just artwork: each plate is connected to a theme, and those themes include: sports teams, animal conservation, agricultural preservation, educational facilities, health awareness, military support, first responder support, environmental causes, and Many more.
- Each theme is connected to a charity. So when you purchase any Florida Specialty Plate, you are, in effect, donating to the foundation or organization associated with that tag.
Can you give an example of how the Florida Specialty Plate program works?
We’d be happy to! Let’s take today’s spotlight: America the Beautiful. This Specialty Plate, which features an eagle and the flag, represents the charity, the America the Beautiful Fund. This fund is an organization that distributes the proceeds from the sale of this tag to various outlets across the state of Florida. Basically, when you opt for a Specialty Plate, you are immediately supporting the goodwill associated with that plate. It’s the easiest form of charity!

What does the America the Beautiful Fund actually fund?
The America the Beautiful Fund has a broad reach when it comes to distributing proceeds. It supports several different programs and projects in Florida, including:
- Youth programs that teach character and leadership
- Assistance and service to military communities
- Education focused on self-sufficiency in the outdoor sphere
- Wildlife conservation
