Keeping your car's window tint within California's rules avoids fines and keeps your view of the road clear. This guide covers what the state's tint laws deal with, what happens if film is found to be non-compliant, and how to check your own vehicle before you drive.

Tint that falls outside California's rules can lead to a citation. A fix-it ticket means correcting the problem and showing the vehicle now complies, which usually involves removing or replacing the film. Getting the shade right at the outset is far less trouble than putting it right afterwards.
Removing film is slower than fitting it, and the cost falls to the owner. Aged adhesive is stubborn, and rear window defroster elements need care. Better to confirm the shade before fitting.
California sets out how tint is treated on passenger cars and on multi-purpose vehicles such as SUVs, vans and trucks, with different windows treated differently. The diagrams below summarize how the rules are applied to each vehicle type. Visible light transmission describes how much light passes through the glass and film together, which is why the same film can measure differently on different glazing. Check the current rules for your vehicle before choosing a shade.
Passenger Vehicles
For passenger vehicles, including convertibles, the rules set out how each window is treated.
A non-reflective tint / sun strip, is allowed 4 inches from the top as long as it does not go past the AS-1 line on your windshield.
