Click on the plate to apply for your own Blackout license plate
Any Wisconsin resident may apply for Blackout license plates. The plate fees include an issuance fee of $15 plus an annual $25 donation in addition to the regular registration fee. The donation goes to the transportation fund and helps build roads and bridges throughout Wisconsin.
Personalizing your Blackout license plates is optional. Visit
Personalized plate search to find out if your choice for a personalized license plate is available. WisDOT may refuse to issue, or may recall after issuance, a request that may be offensive to good taste or decency, misleading, or conflicts with any other license plate. Please allow an additional 4 weeks for delivery of a personalized plate.
DMV Service Centers do issue Blackout license plates.
