If you’re searching for a Colorado Window Tint Recommendation Online, you may be wondering whether a recommendation from an online service is legitimate. A physician’s review done remotely is held to the same professional standards as one done in an office. But it is important to be clear about what any recommendation is in Colorado: physician documentation only. Colorado has no medical window tint exemption, so a recommendation, whether from an online service or a local office, does not allow tint darker than the state’s limits and does not prevent a citation.
How an Online Colorado Window Tint Recommendation Works
Telehealth lets physicians review many medical concerns without an in-person visit. With ForeverTint, you complete a secure intake describing your medical history. An independent licensed physician reviews your medical history by chart review, and occasionally a brief phone call. The physician decides whether a recommendation is medically appropriate for you.
Is an Online Physician Recommendation Legitimate?
Yes, as medical documentation. A licensed physician has the same professional responsibility whether the review happens online or in an office. What matters is that the recommendation is signed by a licensed physician after reviewing your medical history.
What a recommendation does not do is the same either way. It is not a state exemption, and it has no legal effect under Colorado law.
What ForeverTint Provides
ForeverTint is not a state agency and does not issue exemptions. We connect you with an independent licensed physician who reviews your case. Our process includes:
- A secure online purchase through the Colorado Window Tint Recommendation page.
- Chart review by an independent licensed physician, and occasionally a brief phone call.
- Electronic delivery of your signed recommendation if you qualify.
- A full refund if the physician determines you do not qualify.
Who Seeks a Recommendation?
People seek recommendations for conditions involving sensitivity to sunlight or UV light. Conditions a physician may consider include lupus, porphyria, xeroderma pigmentosum, albinism, photosensitivity dermatitis, melanoma and other skin cancers, and light-sensitive eye conditions. No recommendation is issued simply because a person purchases a review.
What Colorado Law Says
Colorado’s window tint law is C.R.S. 42-4-227. It contains no medical exemption, and Colorado has no state permit, DMV application, or medical tint program. Under the statute:
- Windshield: must allow at least 70% light transmittance. Non-reflective tint is allowed only on the top four inches.
- Other windows: must allow at least 27% light transmittance.
- Windows behind the driver: the rear side windows and rear window may be darker than 27% only if the windshield and front side windows allow at least 70% light transmittance.
These limits are the same whether or not you have a medical condition or a physician’s recommendation.
Tint outside these limits can result in a citation whether or not you have a Window Tint Recommendation. Officers retain discretion. Some drivers keep a copy of their recommendation in the vehicle as a record of their physician’s opinion; that is a personal choice, not a legal requirement.
Choosing a Trustworthy Provider
A trustworthy provider should explain clearly what the documentation can and cannot do. Be cautious of any service that suggests a recommendation makes darker tint legal in Colorado or helps you avoid a ticket. It does not.
