Prices are set by age group:

• The best bargain is for children: $200 for under 2 years old and $350 for kids age 2 to 15. That’s a potential savings of more than $2,600 over a lifetime.
• The price for ages 16 to 59 is $500.
• Discount lifetime licenses for resident adults age 60 to 64 are $95.
• Residents 65 and older can receive a free lifetime license, with an option to pay a one-time fee of $10 for a durable, commemorative plastic card.
