The bill, H.B. No. 4967, proposes an amendment to the Transportation Code regarding the renewal fee for a dealer's temporary license plate. Specifically, it modifies Section 503.008(a) to establish that the fee for an original dealer's temporary license plate will be $10, while the renewal of the same license plate will be free of charge, indicated by the insertion of the language specifying "$0 for the renewal of the same license plate."

This change is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, aligning with the broader legislative intent to streamline costs for dealers in Texas. The bill aims to alleviate financial burdens associated with the renewal process for temporary license plates, thereby encouraging compliance and supporting the automotive sales industry.
