Verified August 20, 2026

What this benefit is

At a 50% service-connected certification, Disabled American Veteran plates go on up to TWO vehicles — renewable at any Service Oklahoma location.

What it's worth: DAV plates on up to two vehicles — $6.50 picked up, $13.10 mailed

  • The agency limits the discounted registration to two vehicles per veteran.
  • The plate charge is $6.50 if picked up and $13.10 if mailed, at issue and at renewal alike; the motorcycle version is $13.10 to issue and $8.16 to renew.
  • The registration itself runs at the disabled veteran rate of $5 plus applicable insurance and mailing fees — a separate charge from the plate.

Who is entitled to it

  • You hold at least a 50% service-connected certification.
  • Your home is in this state.

Not sure whether that describes you?

Answer a few questions about this benefit specifically — we only ask what this one actually depends on, and we stop as soon as we know.

How to claim it

  1. 1Get the ODVA reduced licensing charge card — Form 599, also issued as the C599 card — or an ODVA letter issued for the purpose of registering your vehicle. That is the documentation the agency's plate catalogue names, and a VA rating letter alone is not it.
  2. 2Apply through Service Oklahoma or a tag agency at a 50% or greater disability rating.
  3. 3Put the plates on up to two vehicles — that is the agency's stated limit per veteran.
  4. 4Choose pickup over post if you can: the plate is $6.50 picked up against $13.10 mailed, at issue and at each renewal.
  5. 5Do not renew online. The agency states the discounted rate is not available for online renewals, so an online renewal charges the ordinary fee.
  6. 6If you are certified at the 100% rate, ask separately about the vehicle EXCISE tax exemption on purchase — a different, larger benefit that runs through the Veterans Registry.

CorrectionSource replaced 23 August 2026. This record previously cited a commercial mirror of the administrative rule, which is not a source this corpus may rely on, and recorded the plate fee as unknown. Every primary host was tried that day and refused: the state courts network that publishes the statutes refused every connection, the administrative rules host held at a challenge page in a browser, and the Secretary of State's rules portal answered HTTP 401. The authority is now the agency's own plate catalogue, which also settles the fee — $6.50 picked up, $13.10 mailed — and names the documentation as the ODVA Form 599 card or an ODVA letter rather than the form previously recorded.
Worth knowingTwo different charges get confused here. The PLATE costs $6.50 or $13.10 depending on whether you collect it or have it posted. The REGISTRATION runs at the disabled veteran rate of $5 plus applicable insurance and mailing fees. A veteran budgeting for one of them will be surprised by the other.
Known gapThe underlying administrative rule could not be read, so the one-ton vehicle limit previously attributed to it is not restated here — the agency's own pages give the limit as two vehicles per veteran without a weight condition. Ask the tag agency if you are plating something heavy.
Known gapOklahoma also exempts the vehicle excise tax on a purchase by a veteran certified at the 100% rate and enrolled in the Veterans Registry — reported consistently, unread directly, and worth asking about at purchase because excise dwarfs plate fees.
