Kansas Gold Star Mother Plate
-
In 2008, the Kansas
Legislature passed House Bill 2691 which allows a Gold Star Mother to make
application for the new license plate. This means any mother of a service member
killed on active duty can apply to receive these plates free of charge (but
still required to pay the annual motor vehicle tax and registration). A generous
donation from Neva Heiselman, Holton, paid for the issuance of these license
plates.
Gold Star Mothers are mothers who lost a son or daughter in
the service of the country.
How to Request a Gold Star Mother
License Plate:
Mothers may order tags at their County Treasurers office. The mother’s name must
appear on the vehicle title which the tag will be displayed. They will need to
provide a DD1300-Report of Casualty or a Death Certificate. They may also
provide a DD2064-Died in Theatre or a DD93 form which states the soldier died on
active duty and will name the soldiers parents.
KDOR will send the tag to the county the same day they receive
the order.
