S 4743 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to a distinctive plate for active duty military service members

This bill creates a new license plate option for active duty members of the U.S. military, featuring "U.S. Military" and their branch of service (shown via words or insignia). To qualify, applicants must provide proof of active duty status to the state motor vehicle department and pay the standard vehicle registration fee plus a one-time $10 service charge. The state must cover plate costs through a $6,000 surety bond or by securing at least 200 non-refundable orders within two years. All fees collected will fund the design, production, and distribution of these plates, as specified in state law.
