Q.
Will the Rollins license plate be available
indefinitely?
A. Due to the proliferation of specialty license
tags, the Florida Legislature passed legislation in 2006 to
discontinue specialty tags of organizations that did
meet the required 1,000 new and/or renewal plate
registrations over a 12-month period of time. Rollins saved its specialty license tag and it will be available for years to come.

generally occurs during your birth month. Consult your
local tag agency office for exact details and fee

requires an annual fee for the use of the special design
plate. Florida Statutes would have to be amended to
change this requirement.
