Bill > HB1339

This bill modifies the rules for special license plates issued to members of Virginia REALTORS, a professional organization for real estate agents. Previously, these plates were issued under a general provision for occupational associations, but this bill creates a new, specific section for Virginia REALTORS plates. The key change is that the annual fee for these plates, which is $25 in addition to the regular license plate fee, will now be a "revenue sharing" plate. This means that for every plate registered beyond the first 1,000, $15 of the fee will be directed to a special fund called the Virginia REALTORS Disaster Relief Fund, which is used to provide financial aid for qualified natural or man-made disasters in Virginia. The bill also clarifies that existing special license plates for Virginia REALTORS members issued before July 1, 2026, will remain valid until they expire and can then be renewed under the new revenue-sharing provisions.
