A 2236 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes various changes to current system for approval, issuance, administration, and discontinuance of various types of special license plates.

This bill (A2236) revises New Jersey's system for specialty license plates, which allow nonprofit organizations to create plates with their name or logo. It requires organizations seeking these plates to have at least 1,000 members in New Jersey, maintain nonprofit status for five consecutive years, and provide IRS documentation. The bill prohibits offensive content, product promotion, or political/religious messages on plates, allows organizations to collect voluntary donations from plate users, and gives the chief administrator more authority to discontinue plates that aren't cost-effective. Specialty plates for dedicated causes (like charity or historical causes) will be reclassified under this system, with fees changing to $35 per plate and revenues going to the Motor Vehicle Commission rather than specific funds.
