Last Chance, Wyoming: Tribal License Plates Won’t Be Around Much Longer

The Wyoming Department of Transportation recently announced (Friday, January 30th, 2026), that the Tribal license plates will be discontinued.

According to the law, WYDOT is required to cease production of the plates due to the minimum requirement of 500 sets not being met. Since approximately 200 sets of previously produced plates remain in their inventory, Wyoming drivers still have a chance to purchase them.

Keep in mind that applications will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Once this remaining inventory is exhausted, no more Tribal plates will be available for sale. Please note that these plates can continue to be used on your vehicle through 2033.
