HF 4499 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Aviation special plates established.

This bill establishes a new type of special license plate in Minnesota for aviation enthusiasts, allowing vehicle owners to display plates marked with the word "Aviation." To qualify, applicants must own a passenger car, pickup truck, motorcycle, or recreational vehicle and pay the required registration fees and taxes. The plates can be transferred to another eligible vehicle registered to the same owner for a $5 transfer fee, and they are exempt from certain surcharges. The commissioner will work with aviation associations to design the plates, and the program will begin on January 1, 2027.
