Does Louisiana allow a medical exemption for window tint?
Yes. The Department of Public Safety and Corrections, through the Office of State Police (affidavit form DPSSP 1060), exempts a Louisiana-registered vehicle when the registered owner, the owner's spouse, or a family member has a physical or medical condition involving the effects of the sun, supported by an affidavit signed by an optometrist or physician licensed in Louisiana, including an ophthalmologist or dermatologist. A copy of the affidavit is kept in the vehicle at all times, the department issues a decal for each covered vehicle, and the exemption is non-transferable and subject to review every three years; an exemption for light-sensitive porphyria lasts for the duration of ownership, and the State Police form also treats an owner aged 60 or older as covered for the duration of ownership. It never covers the windshield below the top six inches, except for light-sensitive porphyria when the signing clinician specifically authorizes it. No fee is stated in the statute or in the State Police affidavit and inspection materials read for this update.
What does legal tint cost in Louisiana?
It turns on the vehicle, how much glass is being covered, and the film tier — dyed, carbon, and ceramic films price differently, and shops quote the finished job, not the film alone. The free 2026 Louisiana Tint Law and Cost Guide by email (below) includes cost notes that explain what shops weigh, so a quote makes sense when you get one.
