Idaho DMV releases new America 250 license plate

BOISE - The Idaho Division of Motor Vehicles has released a new America 250 license plate, giving Idaho drivers a way to commemorate the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary while supporting state programs.

The America 250 plate features a red, white, and blue design celebrating the United States' semiquincentennial in 2026. The plate is available at county DMV offices and online at dmv.idaho.gov. Standard vehicle registration fees apply, along with a specialty plate fee that supports the Idaho State Historical Society.

"This plate gives Idahoans a chance to mark a historic milestone and show their pride on the road," said DMV Administrator Lisa McClellan. "We're proud to offer a design that honors our country's past while supporting Idaho's efforts to preserve its own history."

Customers can personalize the America 250 plate for an additional fee, subject to Idaho's standard personalization guidelines. Special program plates and personalized plates do not receive county designators.

The plate is available for passenger vehicles and motorhomes. Drivers can request the plate at renewal or at any time by visiting their county DMV office or ordering online.
