The RVIA sticker shows your RV was built to industry standards and has passed certification. Some RV parks restrict home built RVs like skoolies on the basis of them not having an RVIA sticker.
But making the sticker an "option"-? T'other "option" listed there is a "State Seal". Huh????

I doubt someone buying that unit to use in say Australia or Europe would care about or want to pay for an RVIA sticker or a State Seal that someone in the US would require.
Ditto if the unit is being imported to Canada, the CSA Z-240 seal is the only one that matters as far as safety compliance.
