Illinois Veteran License Plates

To qualify for veteran license plates, you must be a veteran of the United States armed forces, honorably discharged from military service. Certain plates may have additional eligibility requirements based on branch of service or military awards.

Illinois offers a variety of veteran license plate designs representing different branches of the armed forces, as well as specific military campaigns or honors. Choose the plate that best reflects your military service or affiliation.

To obtain veteran license plates, you will need to submit an application form along with any required documentation, such as proof of military service and discharge status. Applications can be submitted online through the Illinois Secretary of State website or in-person at a local DMV office.

While veteran license plates typically have standard registration fees, there may be additional fees associated with specialty plates or personalization options. Be sure to review the fee structure and any applicable charges before submitting your application.

Once obtained, veteran license plates must be renewed on a regular basis according to the standard renewal schedule set by the Illinois Secretary of State. Ensure that you renew your plates on time to maintain their validity.

Displaying veteran license plates is a meaningful way to honor your military service and show your pride in being a veteran. For more information or assistance with obtaining veteran plates, please contact our customer service team.
