Texas DMV


The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) has made new system features and performance improvements to the Inventory Management System (IMS). These enhancements, which refine inventory transfer functionalities, will significantly improve the user experience. Attached is the Inventory Management System (IMS) – Plate Transfer Addendum for further guidance on transfer functionality.

To make using the IMS even easier, the DMV has also created quick, easy-to-follow training videos covering key topics like receiving and transferring inventory. The short videos are just a click away – simply click on the play icon (shown below) on the respective pages in the IMS, such as the Transfer Orders and Order Receiving pages.

Process for Obtaining Exempt Plates for Vehicles Sold to Exempt Entities

Texas DMV


This message is to provide guidance on the proper process for obtaining exempt license plates for vehicles sold to qualifying exempt entities, such as governmental agencies or other organizations eligible for exempt registration under Texas law.

Step-by-Step Process:

  • Confirm Exempt Status – Prior to initiating the title transaction, confirm that the buyer is eligible for exempt status. This includes:

    • Governmental agencies (state, federal, city, county)
    • Public schools
    • Certain nonprofit organizations, as defined by statute
  • Title and Registration Application Submission – Submit the title paperwork through the County Tax Assessor outside of webDEALER, ensuring that:

    • The buyer’s name matches the exempt entity’s official name.
    • All applicable documents verifying exempt status, to include the appropriate application for exempt plates.
  • County Tax Office Coordination – Exempt plates are not issued directly to dealers by the department. Once the exempt plate request is submitted:

    • The county tax assessor-collector will review the application and issue the exempt plates.
  • Delivery to the Exempt Entity – Dealers must ensure the exempt plates are either:

    • Delivered directly to the exempt entity upon issuance, or
    • Coordinated for pickup with the county office, depending on local procedures

Important Reminders:

  • Exempt plates must only be used on vehicles owned and operated by the exempt entity.
  • Dealers should not retain or install exempt plates on other vehicles.
  • Proper documentation is essential to avoid delays in plate issuance.

If you have any questions about a buyer’s eligibility for exempt plates or the process outlined above, please contact your local County Tax Assessor-Collector’s office or the TxDMV Regional Service Center.

Thank you for your continued partnership in ensuring proper vehicle registration and compliance with Texas laws.

TxDMV warns Texans about ongoing text scam

Texas DMV


NEWS RELEASE

Don’t click it. It’s not a ticket!

TxDMV warns Texans about ongoing text scam.

(AUSTIN, Texas – July 8, 2025) – Texans should think twice before clicking on links in threatening text messages that falsely claim to be from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) or similarly named agencies.

Drivers across Texas and the nation have reported receiving alarming messages alleging unpaid traffic tickets, toll violations, or other infractions. These texts often threaten immediate prosecution, suspension of vehicle registration, or loss of driving privileges. They typically include a link urging recipients to pay fines immediately to avoid further penalties. These scams are designed to steal personal and financial information.

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles is not a law enforcement agency and does not issue or collect fines for toll or traffic violations. It also does not communicate about alleged violations through unsolicited text messages.

If you receive a suspicious message:

  • Do not click any links.
  • Do not reply or share personal information.
  • Report the message to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov or the Federal Trade Commission at www.reportfraud.ftc.gov.

RESOLVED: Temporary Issue with 30-Day Permit/Plate Printing – Action Required (07/03/2025 @ 11:58 AM)

Good morning,

We are aware of the printer and sticker paper receipt issue affecting 30-day permit/plates
and are actively working on a solution. Sticker paper receipts are not printing from
the proper print tray, and the VOID is missing from the windshield sticker.
 

In the meantime, until a fix is deployed to production, please use the following workaround: 

What Counties Need to Do:

  • Load the sticker paper to Tray 2 before completing a transaction.
  • Before providing the customer the sticker paper receipt, peel off and dispose of the
    windshield sticker OR mark the windshield sticker with an “X” or “VOID” notation.


Update 07/03/2025 @ 11:58 AM:  RESOLVED for Counties. Not resolved for RSCs.

Follow-up to the initial issue bulletin, previously published on 07/01/2025:

The printer and sticker paper receipt issue has been resolved for Counties, but not RSCs
Counties no longer need
to follow the workaround procedure described above.

We are actively working on a solution for the RSCs.  An update will be provided to the
RSCs once the issue is resolved.
 

We apologize for the inconvenience and any impact on you or your customers.

UPDATE – Internet Down Receipt Increase

Texas DMV


Please review and distribute as appropriate.

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) acknowledges that the transition to metal plates presents a learning curve for dealers. To support this transition, we have increased your internet down receipt allocation. This adjustment is intended to provide dealers with greater flexibility to continue vehicle sales while adapting to the new system.

As a reminder, the Internet Down Receipts are available for your use and can be found here https://tags.txdmv.gov/ePlatesIDR/login.

RESOLVED: Vehicle Class Not Set for Non-Titled Records – Action Required (07/03/2025 @ 11:25 AM)

Good morning,

We are aware the Registration and Title System is not properly setting the vehicle class for
non-titled records. We are actively working on a solution. In the interim, to ensure vehicle
records are properly set up, counties need to take the following steps when processing a
non-titled record:

1. Select Non-Titled on the Title Types TTL002 screen
2.
Change the Vehicle Class to MISC on the Class/Plate/Sticker Type Choice
     REG008 screen
3.
Select the appropriate Registration Class and Plate Type and continue with
     the transaction.

If a county has processed a non-titled record today without the vehicle class set to MISC, the
county will need to void the transaction and reprocess.
 


Update 07/03/2025 @ 11:25 AM:  RESOLVED.

Follow-up to the initial issue bulletin, previously published on 07/01/2025:

The vehicle class setting for non-titled records has been resolved.  Counties no longer need
to follow the workaround procedure described above.   

We apologize for the inconvenience and any impact on you or your customers.
