As a recap for our newcomers:
What is a Florida Specialty Plate?
A Specialty Plate is a unique registration tag available in the state of Florida through the DMV (FLHSMV) Specialty Plate program. These plates are offered – for a small extra fee – in lieu of the conventional Florida tags that are issued at the time of initial registration. There are over one hundred different motifs to choose from, including:
- Sports teams
- Wildlife preservation
- Military and police support
- Health awareness
- Environmental conservation
Why do Specialty Plates cost more than standard tags?
Florida Specialty Plates come with an extra fee for a good reason. You see, these plates are more than just a pretty face. Each tag is associated with a specific foundation, charity, or organization. And when you opt for a Specialty Plate, the proceeds from the sale are directed towards the cause connected to the theme.
Can you give an example of a Specialty Plate and its cause?
Absolutely. Today’s plate in the spotlight is The American Legion Specialty Plate. This tag represents the American Legion Department of Florida, which, in turn, supports Florida veterans, their families, and communities. So when you purchase this tag, you are contributing to this purpose monetarily while also advocating for the cause daily by driving with this Specialty Plate on your vehicle.
