SB 186 Alabama Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Motor vehicles, distinctive license plates, issuance of "Invisible Disability" plates, authorized

SB 186 authorizes Alabama to issue distinctive "Invisible Disability" license plates to residents with specific invisible disabilities (like autism, PTSD, diabetes, or visual impairments) and their primary caregivers. To qualify, applicants must provide physician documentation, pay a $40 annual fee (in addition to standard registration fees), and meet other standard licensing requirements. The plates are valid for five years, and the $40 fee's proceeds (minus costs) fund Kulturecity, Inc.'s work on sensory accessibility for people with invisible disabilities. This bill creates a new license plate program with defined eligibility and funding mechanisms.
