Legal Tint Limits
Wisconsin law sets specific limits on how dark your vehicle windows can be tinted. However, the state recognizes that certain medical conditions require additional protection from sunlight. With proper physician documentation, you can legally install darker tint on your front side windows.
Standard Wisconsin Tint Limits (Without Exemption):
- Windshield: Non-reflective tint permitted only above the AS-1 line.
- Front Side Windows: Must allow more than 50% of visible light (50% VLT). Anything darker is illegal without an exemption.
- Back Side Windows: Must allow more than 35% VLT.
- Rear Window: Must allow more than 35% VLT. If rear window has less than 60% VLT, dual side mirrors are required.
- Reflectivity: Non-reflective tints only on all windows.
With a Medical Exemption:
- Windshield: No change – non-reflective tint above AS-1 line only.
- Front Side Windows: May be tinted down to 35% VLT (instead of 50%).
- Back Side Windows: Standard 35% VLT limit applies (no change).
- Rear Window: Standard 35% VLT limit applies (no change).
- Reflectivity: Non-reflective tints only – no metallic or reflective films allowed.
- Law enforcement allows a 3% tolerance when measuring VLT.

FAQs
Why do I need TintedMD? Can’t I just get my windows tinted?
No. Wisconsin law requires a written physician statement before you can legally have front side window tint darker than 50% VLT. Without this documentation, you'll get ticketed up to $175. TintedMD provides this required physician statement 100% online within a few hours – no office visit, no waiting weeks for an appointment.
What exactly does TintedMD provide?
We provide the state-compliant physician-signed statement required under Wisconsin Trans 305.32(4)(b)3. The statement includes your name, medical condition, whether the condition is temporary or permanent, and your vehicle's make, model, year, and VIN. Your signed statement is delivered digitally within 24-48 hours.
How much does TintedMD cost?
TintedMD offers the lowest cost in the US for medical window tint exemption certifications. You only pay if our licensed physician approves your evaluation – 100% money-back guarantee. We also offer interest-free payment plans to make it even more affordable.
What medical conditions qualify for Wisconsin window tint exemption?
Wisconsin law does not list specific conditions but requires a physician to certify that darker tint is medically necessary. Common qualifying conditions include Lupus, Albinism, Photophobia, Xeroderma Pigmentosum, Porphyria, Melanoma/Skin Cancer, Solar Urticaria, Vitiligo, and other photosensitivity disorders.
How long is a Wisconsin window tint exemption valid?
Wisconsin requires the physician statement to specify whether your condition is temporary or permanent. The exemption remains valid as long as the medical condition persists. However, because the statement must include your vehicle's VIN, the exemption is vehicle-specific and becomes invalid if you sell or transfer the vehicle.
Does Wisconsin issue a certificate or sticker?
No. Wisconsin does NOT issue certificates, permits, or stickers for medical window tint exemptions. Your physician's written statement IS your exemption and must be carried in your vehicle at all times.
Can I transfer my exemption to a new vehicle?
No. Wisconsin requires the physician statement to include your specific vehicle's make, model, year, and VIN. The exemption is vehicle-specific and cannot be transferred. If you purchase a new vehicle, you will need a new physician statement with the new vehicle's details.
How dark can my tint be with a medical exemption?
With a valid Wisconsin medical exemption, your front side windows may be tinted down to 35% VLT (instead of the standard 50% limit). The exemption does NOT apply to rear windows, rear side windows, or the windshield.
