HB 6399 Rhode Island House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- REGISTRATION OF VEHICLES

HB 6399 extends a temporary rule allowing nonprofit groups that sponsor special vehicle license plates to reduce their minimum initial order from 600 to 150 sets per plate type. This change, which was set to expire December 31, 2025, will now continue indefinitely. The bill directly affects nonprofit organizations that create cause-related or charity license plates by lowering their upfront financial commitment. It does not change the $30 per plate fee or the requirement for nonprofits to pay a nonrefundable fee for orders below 600 sets.
