In addition to the standard license plate design, a variety of collegiate, military, and organization plates are available for an additional cost.

Standard Plates

Standard license plates change on a regular bass with the current standard-issue plate design adopted in 2022. The Alabama Department of Revenue maintains a list of these standard plates available to passenger vehicles, trucks, motor homes, and more.
