- If you intend to change your auto dealers location, you must notify the licensing board within how many days?
- What must car dealers do to issue a third set of temporary plates?
- When can original car sales records be stored off-site?
- What is the process for replacing a lost car dealer license plate?
- How long must odometer disclosure statements, resulting from auto sales, be kept on file for?
Other Dealer License Requirements
In addition to passing a dealer test you will also need to meet all other dealer license requirements. Generally this means submitting proper documents and providing proof of a place for conducting business.For exact auto dealer license requirements check with your state's governing dealers licensing board.
