No, Wyoming prohibits window tinting below 26% visible light transmission (VLT) for passenger vehicles, making 15% illegal statewide. The Wyoming Department of Transportation enforces this under Wyo. Stat. § 31-5-915, aligning with federal safety standards. Local jurisdictions, including Cheyenne and Casper, conduct roadside inspections, with violations resulting in fines up to $200. Recent 2026 legislative proposals aim to tighten enforcement but have not yet passed.
