State Laws

We often receive questions about which pre-cut window tint is legal in certain states. Unfortunately, we don't have a definitive answer to this question due to the numerous jurisdictions, local laws, and regulations that govern the allowable light transmittance for window tints.

 

Please keep in mind that most automotive windows already have a tint in them. To see the difference for yourself, simply lower your window slightly and observe the clarity difference between the glass and the open air. Although the tint in the glass is minimal, it does contribute to the total light transmittance of the window once a pre-cut tint is installed.

 

Use this guide as a quick reference only and conduct your own research before placing an order. This table is not 100% accurate, and you must verify the information with your local laws and regulations concerning window tint. It is also a great idea to perform a final meter reading at the end of your installation to ensure you are within legal limits.
