The bill mandates the Iowa Department of Transportation to establish a program for the registration of noncommercial fleet vehicles and to issue special registration plates for these vehicles. Specifically, it introduces a new subsection to Section 321.34 of the Code 2025, which outlines the requirements for this program. By August 1, 2028, the department is required to develop a system for registering and renewing noncommercial fleet vehicle registrations, design a unique registration plate that signifies the vehicle's fleet status, and create rules to govern the administration of this program.

The special registration plates will indicate that the vehicle is part of a noncommercial fleet and will be exempt from the annual validation sticker requirements. Additionally, the department will need to establish eligibility criteria for vehicles to qualify for this fleet registration. This initiative aims to streamline the registration process for noncommercial fleet vehicles and provide a clear identification system for such vehicles on the road.
