Veterans' Licence Plates

The Government of Alberta introduced a special Veterans' Licence Plate in 2005 to honour the contributions of Alberta veterans.

Veterans' licence plates can be used on vehicles with passenger class registration, such as passenger cars, SUVs, station wagons, minivans, motor homes and light trucks. The plates are also available for farm vehicles with class 2 commercial registration.

Veterans who are eligible for the special licence plate have two payment options:

1. They can pay just the $22.63 exchange fee.
   
   When the plate comes up for renewal on the regularly scheduled renewal date, eligible plate holders will then pay the full cost of their annual renewal.
    
2. They can renew their vehicle registration ahead of their regularly scheduled renewal date and only pay the cost of their next annual vehicle registration.

   The $22.63 plate exchange fee will not be charged in the case of early registration renewal.

Eligible veterans can obtain the plates from their local registry agent. More information and application forms are available through the

• Royal Canadian Legion Alberta-NWT Command (external site) or
• by contacting an Alberta registry agent office near you.
