Kansas license plates will soon have a new look.

 Governor Laura Kelly today revealed a new license plate design that will be seen on Kansas roadways beginning in spring 2024.

The new plate displays a wheat-yellow color in the background with black and dark blue text. The design pays tribute to the state motto, “ad astra per aspera,” with the words “to the stars” printed at the bottom of the plate.

The Kansas Department of Revenue is phasing out the current license plates starting in January , and the new plate design will appear on vehicles beginning in March.
