Relating to: correction bill for 2025 Wisconsin Act 15 and making an appropriation.
This bill corrects an error in 2025 Wisconsin Act 15 regarding vehicle registration fees. It adds a $6 fee per new vehicle registration plate (not replacement plates) starting October 1, 2025, to be collected in addition to existing fees. The fee applies to all new plates issued after that date and directly affects vehicle owners registering new vehicles. The bill does not change existing heavy vehicle fee structures or other registration requirements. It is a technical correction to ensure proper fee implementation under the original law.
