The bill amends Wyoming law to establish a new decal for veterans that can be attached to their vehicle license plates. It allows any Wyoming resident who is an honorably discharged veteran of the United States armed forces to apply for this decal by providing appropriate documentation. The new language specifies that the decal will feature a distinctive symbol or letters to identify the registrant as a veteran and must be placed in the lower left corner of the license plate. Additionally, applicants will be required to pay an administration fee, not exceeding five dollars, to cover the costs associated with issuing the decal. The bill also clarifies that decals do not need to be renewed with each license plate renewal.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that applicants must be both Wyoming residents and honorably discharged veterans, with evidence of their military service. It also states that individuals can obtain either the new veteran decal or another type of decal, but not both. The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2026.
