How it works

Three steps. About 15 minutes.

1

Tell us about you

Answer a few quick questions online about your health and your vehicle. Takes about 2 minutes.

2

Meet a SC practitioner

Hop on a short telehealth visit with a South Carolina licensed practitioner who reviews whether you qualify.

3

Get your waiver

If you qualify, you receive your signed medical affidavit to keep in your vehicle. If not, you pay nothing.

Do I qualify?

More people qualify than you would think.

South Carolina allows a medical exemption when sunlight or glare affects a health condition. A licensed practitioner makes the call, but these are some of the common conditions that can qualify:

Light sensitivity (photophobia)
Migraines & headaches
Lupus
Skin conditions & sun sensitivity
Melasma
Eye conditions & post-surgery recovery
Autoimmune disorders
Medication-related sun sensitivity

The law, plainly

This is a real, legal exemption.

Under South Carolina Code 56-5-5015, a driver with a medical condition that requires darker tint can be exempt from the standard limits. The exemption is established by an affidavit signed by a physician or optometrist licensed in South Carolina stating that the darker tint is medically necessary.

  • You keep the signed affidavit in your vehicle at all times.
  • It is valid for two years, then renewed.
  • Approval is a medical decision made by the licensed provider, never automatic.

Standard limits, for context

South Carolina window tint law normally limits front side, back side, and rear windows to roughly 27% VLT, with windshield tint only above the AS-1 line. A medical window tint exemption sets that standard limit aside: your provider documents what is medically appropriate (commonly cited as 20% VLT or darker, but the provider decides).

We help you connect with licensed South Carolina practitioners and handle the paperwork. We do not provide legal advice or guarantee any specific tint level; the provider determines medical necessity.

Questions, answered.

Is this actually legal?+

Yes. SC Code 56-5-5015 provides a medical tint exemption from the standard South Carolina window tint limits when a licensed SC physician or optometrist signs an affidavit of medical necessity. We connect you with those licensed practitioners.

What if I do not get approved?+

Then you pay nothing. You only pay if you are approved. Approval is a real medical decision made by the provider, and our approval rate is about 99%.

How long does it take?+

Most people finish the whole thing in about 15 minutes from their phone: a short intake, then a telehealth visit with the practitioner.

How dark can I go with a medical tint exemption in South Carolina?+

The standard SC limit is roughly 27% VLT on the front side, back side, and rear windows, with windshield tint only above the AS-1 line. With a medical exemption that standard limit does not apply; the provider documents what is medically appropriate for your condition (often cited as 20% VLT or darker, but the provider decides).

Do I have to keep anything in my car?+

Yes. You keep the signed affidavit in your vehicle and present it if asked. It is valid for two years, then a quick $400 renewal keeps it current.

Does the South Carolina tint waiver work statewide?+

Yes. Because the visit is telehealth with a South Carolina licensed practitioner, we serve drivers in Columbia, Charleston, Greenville, and every other city in the state. The signed affidavit is valid anywhere in South Carolina.

How much does it cost?+

A one-time $600 covers the telehealth visit and your signed affidavit, valid for two years. Renewals after that are $400. You only pay if you are approved.
