WET is open in 4 of the 20 states where we checked it on the official DMV site in the last 7 days: Kentucky, South Dakota, Washington and Washington DC. It also showed open in Wyoming, but those checks are older or per-county, so they're marked * below.

WET in every state we check

The summary above counts every official DMV answer from the last 7 days. * Not counted: the check is older than 7 days, it's Wyoming's per-county search, or it comes from a registration lookup or an imported plate list ("Likely open" rows). Not allowed means the state's site rejected the text itself - usually its length or characters. "Since" is when we first saw the current status. States not listed haven't been checked for WET yet, or we don't cover them - see all states.

WET by the numbers

WET is open in 20% of this week's official checks - harder to get than the average 3-character plate we check (41% open).

Has any state refused WET?

• Tennessee - Flagged by Tennessee's word filter at our latest check.
• Arizona - On Arizona's rejected/banned plate records (2012).

WET doesn't fit the plate rules in Tennessee - the state's site marked it Not allowed (usually too long, too short or a format the state reserves), so it can't be ordered there.

Worried about rejection? The dashboard's rejection risk check reads a plate the way DMV reviewers do. See plates states have rejected.
