New Louisiana dental hygienist plate carries fees

Louisiana citizens can request a Louisiana Dental Hygienists’ Association plate for passenger cars, pickups, recreational vehicles, and vans. Issuance requires at least 1,000 applicants and a state registration system update to handle the plates. Buyers pay a $25 annual royalty and a $3.50 handling fee per plate, plus the standard vehicle license tax. Royalties go solely toward association activities; the state keeps the handling fee to cover administrative costs. The law requires the state to adopt rules to carry out the plate program.
