Vermont offers 13 military and veteran license plates plus 6 combat theater plates honoring service members, veterans, retired service members and eligible family members. They can go on vehicles registered at the pleasure car rate and trucks registered for less than 26,001 pounds. None of them can be personalized, and each plate is only reissued to the original plate holder or their unremarried surviving spouse.
First send a completed Vermont Certificate of Veteran Status, a copy of the veteran’s DD214 showing character of service or a military ID card for serving members, and any other eligibility documentation to the Vermont Office of Veterans Affairs, 118 State Street, Montpelier VT 05620-4401. Phone 802-828-3379 or 888-666-9844, fax 802-828-5932. Once certified, apply at any Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles office.
