LB 1127 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Provide for hangtag permits for motor vehicles under the Game Law

LB 1127 creates a new "hangtag permit" for Nebraska residents to access vehicle permit areas under the Game Law. Beginning January 1, 2027, residents can purchase this annual permit for $50 (combined cost of resident annual permit, duplicate permit, and up to $15 convenience fee), valid for one year and displayable on the vehicle's rearview mirror or dash. The permit can be transferred between vehicles registered to the same owner in Nebraska but cannot be replaced if lost or stolen. It must be obtained only at commission offices or designated park areas, and it replaces the previous annual permit for display purposes.
