CHICAGO -Chicago officials announced that April will be City Sticker Amnesty Month, giving car owners a chance to swerve penalties.

During the entirety of next month, anyone may buy a City Sticker from the City Clerk without having to pay late fees and back charges.

What are City Stickers?

City Stickers in Chicago are required for all vehicles registered to an address within the city limits.

They serve as proof that a vehicle owner has paid the city’s Wheel Tax, which helps fund road maintenance and other municipal services.

Residents must purchase a City Sticker within 30 days of moving to Chicago or acquiring a new vehicle. Failure to display a valid City Sticker can result in fines and penalties.

Annually, City Stickers range from $53 for motorbikes, up to $530 for large trucks.
