TxDMV webDEALER System Requirements
New webDEALER Requirement: July 1, 2025
As of July 1, 2025, all licensed dealers in Texas must use the TxDMV webDEALER system to electronically process title and registration for vehicle sales. Dealers without webDEALER accounts will not be able to complete sales transactions beginning July 1, 2025.
webDEALER training is available on demand online 24/7 or during one of our live webinars.
Increased Application Processing Times
Please be advised that the Motor Vehicle Division has implemented a number of new processes to prevent fraudulent access to vehicle regulatory processes. These processes have resulted in an increase in application processing times. Dealers may submit renewal applications up to 180 days in advance of their license expiration date. We strongly recommend submission of renewal applications as early as possible.
Fingerprinting Now Required for Certain License Holders
On April 11, 2024, the Board of the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles adopted rules requiring salvage vehicle dealer and in-transit drive-a-way operator license holders and applicants to be fingerprinted. Applications submitted on or after June 1, 2024, will be subject to this fingerprint requirement.
