Seahawks Throwback License Plate
12s: Rep the classic blue and green with the all-new Seahawks throwback license plate—available now for Washington residents! This specialty plate supports the Seahawks Charitable Fund, helping empower youth and communities across our state. Learn more about how to get yours below.
Starting June 20, 2025, fans with registered vehicles in Washington State can purchase the new plate in either standard (next available number) or personalized (provided desired combination is available) formats. To purchase, the Department of Licensing recommends:
1) Call a vehicle licensing office to confirm your correct plate fee;
2) Fill out the Specialty License Plate Application;
3) For standard plates, either mail the application along with check or money order with your fee amount to any vehicle licensing office; OR take in person to a vehicle licensing office. For personalized plates, either mail application and fees to Special Plate Unit, Department of Licensing, PO Box 9909, Olympia, WA 98507; OR apply in person at the King County Records and Licensing Services Office at 210 S Jackson St #206 in Seattle.
In Washington, $28 from each specialty plate and renewal goes to local charitable benefit. $21 of that amount will benefit the Seattle Seahawks Charitable Foundation (SSCF) starting this November. SSCF has invested in youth and organizations aimed at making the Pacific Northwest Region a better place for everyone to live since 1995. The remaining $7 supports the Washington State Leadership Board, a trustee agency of the state delivering free youth leadership programs.
12s with the original design that ran from 2014-2025 can still use the plates as they always have. A personalized plate configuration can only be used by one person no matter the plate background so a "12THMAN" plate on the original design would not be available for the new design.
Not using your plate anymore? You can keep it as a memento or dispose of it in the following ways.
Currently, Seahawks license plates are only available to Washington State residents with a registered vehicle.
