Are there legal restrictions on window tinting in New York?
Tint darkness is measured by Visible Light Transmission (VLT) — the higher the percentage, the more light passes through (lighter tint).
New York has some of the stricter VLT requirements in the U.S. to ensure visibility and safety.
Windshield:
Non-reflective tint is only allowed on the top 6 inches of the windshield. The rest must allow ≥ 70% light to pass through.Front Side Windows (driver & passenger):
Must allow at least 70% VLT. Darker films (like 50%, 35%, 20%, 5%) are illegal on these windows.Rear Side Windows:
For cars/sedans: Must allow at least 70% VLT.
Some interpretations allow darker rear side tint on SUVs/vans if the vehicle has dual outside mirrors, but always double-check local enforcement.
Rear Window (rear windshield):
Any tint darkness is allowed if the vehicle has mirrors on both sides.
How long does it take to tint my vehicle's windows?
The duration of a window tinting job depends on the size of the vehicle and the number of windows. However, most window tinting jobs can be completed within a few hours.
How long will my window tint last?
When professionally installed, Ceramic Pro Kavaca window tint is designed to last for the life of your vehicle.
Kavaca films are built to:
Resist fading, discoloration, and purpleing
Prevent bubbling, peeling, or cracking
Maintain clarity and performance over time
