The bill, S.B. No. 1227, amends the Transportation Code regarding fees for the issuance of certain military specialty license plates in Texas. It specifies that individuals applying for these license plates must pay the standard registration fee as outlined in Chapter 502, but allows for one set of license plates to be issued without this fee under specific sections of the code.

Additionally, the bill eliminates the previously established fee of $3 for the issuance of specialty license plates under certain sections, stating instead that there will be no additional fee for any specialty license plate issued under this subchapter. The changes aim to streamline the process and reduce costs associated with obtaining military specialty license plates. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
