Ohio Window Tint Law: Quick Answers
A plain-English summary of Ohio's rules, not legal advice.
I live in Oregon, Ohio. Which tint law applies to my car?
Ohio's. Ohio's tint law applies to vehicles registered in Ohio (Ohio Rev. Code 4513.241(C)), so an Oregon, OH driver follows the Ohio limits on this page, not the tint rules of the State of Oregon.
How dark can my front side windows be in Ohio?
The driver and front passenger windows must let in at least 50% of light (plus or minus 3%), measured with the film and the glass together, and the film can't be red or yellow (Ohio Adm.Code 4501-41-03(A)(3)).
Can I tint my windshield in Ohio?
Film on the windshield must keep total light transmittance at 70% or more (plus or minus 3%) and can't be red or yellow. A strip along the top that doesn't extend below the AS-1 line or 5 inches from the top, whichever is closer to the top, isn't regulated. Reflective film isn't allowed on any window (Ohio Adm.Code 4501-41-03(A)(2), (A)(5) and (D)).
Is there a medical exemption for darker tint in Ohio?
Yes. Ohio's tint limits don't apply to a vehicle registered to a person (or that person's parent, legal guardian or spouse) who has an affidavit signed by an Ohio-licensed physician or optometrist stating that a physical condition requires darker film. The affidavit must be with that person or the driver whenever they're in the vehicle (Ohio Adm.Code 4501-41-05(A)). The exemption applies only to vehicles registered in Ohio, and it doesn't allow reflective film (the reflective-film ban still applies under Ohio Rev. Code 4513.241(F)).
