Do you have to have a license plate on the front of a car in the USA?

I have been to the states a few times and noticed that some cars do not have plates on the front. Is this legal? And if so, why?

In some states yes there are plates on front of car, but that is left to the state government's discretion. Most do not for simple fact of saving money by not producing 2 plates for each vehicle. |

Some states require a front and rear plate and some states have a rear plate only. Each state decides how it is done. Hope this helps. |

It depends on the state issuing the plate
I live on a state line. Wisconsin issues a front license plate and you must install it. Michigan issues only one plate for the rear of the vehicle |

Some states require 2 plates, some do not. If you register in a state that requires only one, the other states honor that |

Most states have the requirement to have two plates, front and rear, however, some only require a rear plate. There are laws about how high off the ground the plate must be placed, and where on the car it must be placed. |

No you don't have to. You just have to have a back license plate. I think it's because if you are running from something (mainly cops) then they can still get your license plate #. |
