Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

4 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

Award plates and free parking for disabled veterans

DMV issues special plates for recipients of the Air Force Cross, Coast Guard Cross, Distinguished Service Cross, or Navy Cross. You must apply and show proof of the award. You can get up to two sets for allowed vehicle types. If you receive U.S. compensation for a service‑connected disability and your award plate shows the International Symbol of Access, you do not pay state or local parking fees. This does not waive fees at federal facilities.

Space Force veteran plates available

Nevada DMV issues a special "VETERAN" plate for U.S. Space Force veterans. The plate shows the Space Force seal or image. Spouses, parents, and children of these veterans can also apply. You must submit the DMV application and pay required plate fees.

Fees for outreach veteran plates

You pay $35 when you first get the outreach veteran plate. You pay $10 each year for the renewal sticker. A duplicate set costs $10. These charges are on top of normal registration fees, taxes, and the veteran outreach program fee.

Personalize veteran and family plates

If you qualify for a veteran outreach plate or a family plate honoring a fallen service member, you can combine it with a personalized prestige plate. You must pay the personalized plate fees in addition to the special plate fees. DMV issues the combined plate after you apply, show proof, and pay all fees.
