Is Your Window Tint Legal in Texas? Here’s What You Need to Know
Window tint is a must in Texas—but is yours legal? At Blue Ocean Auto Spa in Cedar Park, we help you stay cool and compliant with the latest tint laws. Here’s your guide to Texas window tint regulations and why ceramic tint is your best bet.
Texas Window Tint Laws Explained
- Windshield: Tint allowed on the top 5 inches or above the AS-1 line. Must be non-reflective.
- Front Side Windows: Must allow more than 25% of visible light (VLT).
- Back Side Windows: No VLT limit if your car has dual side mirrors.
- Rear Window: No VLT restriction (again, dual mirrors required).
- Reflectivity: No more than 25% reflective.
Other Requirements
- Tint Installer Certification: Legal tints must be installed by a certified facility—like Blue Ocean Auto Spa.
- Compliance Sticker: Must be visible on the driver-side window.
- Medical Exemptions: Special rules apply for those with medical conditions—ask us how to qualify.
