How Much Does a Tint Exemption Cost in Delaware?
A clear breakdown of what you'll pay for a Delaware window tint medical exemption — no hidden fees, no surprises.
Are There Any Hidden Fees?
No. The $225 fee covers everything listed above. No DMV charges, no state filing costs, no surprises.
Cost Comparison: Exemption vs. Delaware Tint Tickets
While individual Delaware tint tickets are relatively low ($57.50), they accumulate quickly — and the real cost includes mandatory tint removal:
The Delaware State Police actively enforce on I-95, Route 1, and US-13. Repeat tickets plus mandatory removal costs can quickly exceed $225. The exemption is the permanent, cost-effective solution.
Cost of Window Tint Installation in Delaware
The exemption cost ($225) is separate from the cost of having your windows tinted. Typical pricing at Delaware tint shops in Wilmington, Dover, Newark, and Rehoboth Beach:
- Basic dyed tint (sedan): $150–$300
- Ceramic tint (recommended for DE): $300–$600
- Full vehicle (SUV/truck): $400–$800
We recommend ceramic tint for Delaware — it blocks 99% of UV (critical at Rehoboth Beach and along the coast), performs well in humidity, and won't bubble or peel. Get your exemption beforevisiting a tint shop so the installer knows you're legally authorized.
