The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, in conjunction with The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, is offering gift certificates for any specialty tag in Florida.

A different idea for gift giving at Christmastime and birthdays can help save a variety of Florida’s fish and wildlife, and it can be used year-round.

The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, in conjunction with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, is offering gift certificates for any specialty tag in Florida.

The purchase of a gift certificate for any of FWC’s five specialty license plates helps in the effort to preserve and conserve Florida’s wildlife and natural habitats.

Specialty plates available through the FWC are:

• Conserve Wildlife with the black bear logo ($15)
  
  
• Go Fishing with the largemouth bass logo ($25)
  
  
• Protect the Panther ($25)
  
  
• Helping Sea Turtles Survive ($23)
  
  
• Save the Manatee($20).

FWC’s specialty tag gift certificates may be purchased at any authorized motor vehicle office, such as a state motor vehicle office, local tax collector’s office or a licensed tag agent. A credit will be issued in the name of the gift recipient.

When recipients renew their license plates and pay the regular registration fee, they can use the gift certificate to buy the specialty tag. An additional $4.50 is added at the time of purchase for administrative and certificate costs.

Since most tags are renewed on the birth date of the registered vehicle owner, the gift certificates make great birthday presents.
