Read these updates. There are important new rules affecting many businesses.
The option to pay the title fee after your submit an EDRS has been added to the MVIP Portal!
With this option, the EDRS will be marked paid and you can print a receipt after the transaction is completed. The ability to pay for one or multiple title fees is available.
Please review the EDRS Quick Reference and EDRS Dealer Manual for more information. Initially payments can be made via credit card or ACH. In the future, due to increased credit card fees, payments will be limited to ACH-Echeck.
This functionality will reduce title processing time, connect the fee payment to the vehicle and allow printing of an invoice.
Odometer Disclosure is required on all 2011 and newer vehicles and must be completed on a secure form such as a Title, Dealer Reassignment of Title or a Secure Power of Attorney.
Non-Secure Power of Attorney forms are no longer accepted. The DMV recognizes this is a burden on the vehicle industry. However, the extended disclosure period and secure form requirements are both mandated by federal regulations, 49 CFR 580.
Lienholders must obtain a Secure Power of Attorney from both the buyer and seller if the title is not present at the time of sale. Section A on the Secure Power of Attorney is completed by the seller giving the financial institution Power of Attorney. Section B is completed by the buyer giving the financial institution Power of Attorney. Section C is completed by the financial institution so they may sign on behalf of both customers. Again, this applies to all 2011 and newer vehicles.
2011 vehicles did not become odometer exempt on January 1, 2021. You must complete an Odometer Disclosure on any 2011 or newer vehicle.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requires odometer disclosures until vehicles are 20 years old, beginning with vehicles of the 2011 model year. The previous rule was 10 years.
You must disclose the mileage even if the title or Dealer Reassignment form says "Exempt - Model year over 9 years old." Titles and forms now being issued reflect the new rule.
Vehicles that are weight exempt (over 16,000 pounds GVWR) remain exempt under the new rule.
2011 vehicles will become exempt from odometer disclosure in the year 2031. 2012 vehicles will be exempt in 2032 and so on. See the News Release for more information.
Watch your trade-ins:
The Odometer Reading section of a Nevada title issued under the old disclosure rule that states “Exempt - Model year over 9 years old.” The reading must be entered for any vehicle 2011 or newer even if this statement is present. The Odometer Reading section of a Nevada title which reflects the new rule.
Due to State and Federal regulation/rule changes over the past several years and changing DMV business model, the Department is able to accept electronic notary and e-signature on physical and digital forms. This coincides with practices already existing in the Title Section and streamlines the ability to accept and process e-signatures.
The new process allows an applicant to submit a form prescribed by the Department with an e-signature and/or e-notary if authentication requirements are met:
The electronic signature acceptance process will mirror that of current DMV transactions:
Note: An existing original title or manufacturer’s certificate of origin, will be denied if submitted with e-signatures for transfer of ownership at this time
E-signatures may be accepted on most DMV prescribed forms and may not be denied solely because the signature is electronic.
The Department has created the following checklist for customers with questions: E-Signature Checklist.
Veteran and Other Tax Exemptions: Exemptions must be applied at the time your customer's vehicle is registered. The DMV does not issue refunds or apply exemptions retroactively. Please do not direct customers to ask for a refund from the DMV.
