Wisconsin DMV Unveils New Specialty Plate to Support Forest Conservation

MADISON, Wis. (Civic Media) — There will soon be a new license plate to decipher in the state. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s Division of Motor Vehicles has introduced a new specialty license plate in collaboration with the Wisconsin County Forests Association.

The new plate supports the organization’s mission to sustain over 2.4 million acres of forests, which provide both recreational opportunities and essential materials for the state’s forest industry.

To get the plate, drivers must pay a one-time $15 fee and commit to an annual $25 donation, which may be tax deductible. Personalization is available for an additional $15 each year. The regular vehicle registration fee also applies.

This new plate joins Wisconsin’s list of 61 special license plates, which can be ordered online or by mail.

The most popular special plates in the state include the Collector, Military Group, and Elkhart Lake’s Road America plates.

Two other new plates introduced in 2024 focus on suicide prevention and animal welfare.
