Window tint laws in Saskatchewan (2026)
Per-window rules for Saskatchewan, Canada - cited to the primary legal sources and last verified 2026-07-15.
The rules, window by window
| Window | Rule |
|---|---|
| Front side windows | Restricted with no numeric limit - aftermarket film is barred or conditionally allowed; see the notes for the exact rule and any exceptions |
| Rear side windows | No restriction on tint darkness |
| Rear window | No restriction on tint darkness |
Windshield
The windshield must not have any coating of sunscreen or reflective material other than that applied by the glass manufacturer, except a sunscreen coating that does not extend more than 75 mm down from the top of the windshield, which is permitted.
Reflectivity
Side window glass beside the driver must not have coatings of sunscreen or reflective material other than that applied by the glass manufacturer (s.66(3)); the windshield is subject to the same restriction (s.64(3)(c)).
Medical exemption
No medical exemption provision identified in ss.64-66 of the Vehicle Equipment Regulations, 1987. Not confirmed either way from a primary source in this pass.
Enforcement
The windshield must also be free of damage greater than 13 mm in diameter in the wiper-swept area, free of decals/devices in that area, and not have more than 10% of its total area discoloured or damaged (s.64(3), (6)).
Notes
Confirmed directly from the regulation text (Vehicle Equipment Regulations, 1987, RRS c V-2.1 Reg 10, ss.64 and 66) via CanLII. No numeric VLT percentage was found for Saskatchewan; instead the rule is a flat prohibition on any aftermarket sunscreen/reflective coating on the windshield (outside the top-75mm allowance) and on the side windows located beside the driver ('so that the driver has a clear view to the sides,' s.66(1)). No restriction on rear side windows or the rear window was found in ss.64-69 reviewed, so those appear unrestricted.

Frequently asked questions
What tint is legal on front side windows in Saskatchewan?+
Saskatchewan does not publish a percentage for front side windows - the law restricts aftermarket darkening film on them outright, so there is no VLT number that makes dark film legal there. See the rules table and notes on this page for the exact wording.
Can I have a tinted windshield strip in Saskatchewan?+
Yes, within limits: The windshield must not have any coating of sunscreen or reflective material other than that applied by the glass manufacturer, except a sunscreen coating that does not extend more than 75 mm down from the top of the windshield, which is permitted.
Is there a medical exemption for darker tint in Saskatchewan?+
No medical exemption provision identified in ss.64-66 of the Vehicle Equipment Regulations, 1987. Not confirmed either way from a primary source in this pass.
