The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) began issuing the new “Honoring Our Veterans” license plates in mid-January 2013. The “Honoring Our Veterans” license plate was authorized by Act 194 of 2012. This attractive license plate features an image of the American Flag and a Bald Eagle and contains the words “Honoring Our Veterans.” The license plate is available for passenger cars and light trucks (up to 10,000 pounds). The fee for this special license plate is $35. Fifteen dollars from each license plate goes to the Veterans’ Trust Fund. Money in the Veterans’ Trust Fund will be used to support and assist Pennsylvania veterans and their families through grants to veterans’ service organizations and charitable organizations. In addition, funds in the Veterans’ Trust Fund will be used for defraying the costs of implementing the new veterans’ designation on Pennsylvania drivers’ licenses and other implementation costs. Although we expect that many Veterans will want this new license plate, you don’t have to be a Veteran to display the “Honoring Our Veterans” license plate on your car or truck. All Pennsylvania motorists can get this attractive new patriotic license plate. Show your colors and support our veterans by ordering a “Honoring Our Veterans” license plate from PennDOT. To apply for a license plate, please complete Form MV‐914, “Application for Honoring Our Veteran License Plate”.
