No Salesperson License Fees in Texas

Although some states require a car salesperson license if you wish to be employed as a motor vehicle sales person selling new cars or used cars, Texas does not; therefore, there are no salesperson license fees to worry about.

NOTE: Auto dealers licenses are required for anyone who wants to become a car dealer. For more information about the state’s dealers requirements and how to become a dealer, contact your local TX DMV branch.

A Representative License Might Be Required


However, a representative license is needed if you:

  • Work as an agent or employee for a manufacturer, distributor, or converter of motor vehicles.
  • Perform any duty relating to motor vehicle distribution or car sales.
  • Plan to contact car dealers within the state on behalf of a company that manufactures, distributes, or converts automobiles to arrange auto sales.
Receiving a representative license is simple. Complete the application on the TX Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website and submit payment for the $200 licensing fee. There is an additional $1 service charge if you opt to pay by credit card.

If you're employed on a part-time basis at more than one Texas company which manufactures, distributes, or converts automobiles, please keep in mind that you will need to apply for a separate representative license for each company that you represent.  There is no discount offered for obtaining multiple licenses; you will be charged the full $200 fee for each license that is issued.

Also, there is a $50 duplicate license fee if you ever need to replace a representative license that has been lost or damaged. You can download an application for a duplicate license on the TX DMV website.
