Bill > SB54

This bill modifies Maryland's regulations for specially designed vintage reproduction registration plates by removing the previous one-year sales limitation and establishing standardized fees for these plates. The Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) will now continue to offer these unique plates for qualifying vehicles, including passenger cars, trucks under 1 ton, historic vehicles, multipurpose vehicles, and street rods. Vehicle owners or lessees can apply for these plates, which will resemble the black-lettering-on-yellow-background registration plate used in Maryland in 1910. The bill introduces a fixed fee structure of $100 for initial plate issuance and $25 for each renewal, with these fees designed to cover the MVA's administrative costs and be credited to the Gasoline and Motor Vehicle Revenue Account for distribution according to existing state regulations. The new provisions will take effect on October 1, 2025, providing a clear timeline for implementation of these changes to vehicle registration plate options.
