The exemption allows you to tint your windows darker than the standard legal limits. However, the exact percentage may vary based on your medical needs and state guidelines.

Will my tint exemption be recognized in other states?

Since window tinting laws vary from state to state, your exemption may not be recognized outside of New York. It’s essential to check with other states if you plan to travel.
