Metal plate return updates

Posted on September 13, 2018 by TxDMV

Effective immediately Texas motor vehicle dealers, in-transit operators, converters, manufacturers, and distributors are required to return canceled, damaged, or unneeded metal plates to a Regional Service Center or the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Headquarters.  Plates may be mailed to or dropped off at any of the 17 locations across the state.  Licensees who close their license must return all plates, temporary tags, stickers, and plate receipts within 10 days of license closure.

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicle’s eLICENSING system and website have been updated to include information about this requirement.  Forms, office locations, and business hours are available on the website.

In addition to reducing the potential for fraudulent use of license plates, this effort provides Texas dealers and other licensees a way to responsibly recycle over 4,000 plates every year. 

Please visit our website or contact us toll-free at 1-888-DMV-GOTX (1-888-368-4689) or at (512) 465-3000 for more information.  We are available to answer your questions from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday.  

Thank you for your support.

New Referral Fee Option for Independent Dealers

Posted on September 10, 2018 by TxDMV

On August 16, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) Board met and adopted rules related to the use of referral fees for independent motor vehicle dealers. Here is what you need to know as a licensed independent dealer on this effort: 

  • An independent motor vehicle dealer may now offer a referral fee in cash or value to a customer who purchased a vehicle from the licensed dealer within the past four years.
  • The referral fee may be contingent upon the new referred individual purchasing a vehicle, or a fee may be paid for the referral of a new potential customer.
  • The referral fee agreement may NOT be used for financing as a part of an original retail installment contract agreement transaction (Ref. Texas Finance Code 348.403 and 348.404). 

The rule does not extend the option to offer a referral fee to:

  • a franchised motor vehicle dealer;
  • a wholesale motor vehicle dealer;
  • a motorcycle dealer;
  • a house trailer dealer;
  • a trailer or semitrailer dealer; or
  • an independent mobility motor vehicle dealer 

If you have any questions regarding the new referral fee option, please do not hesitate to contact us at (512) 465-4207.

Best,
Corrie Thompson
Enforcement Division Director

New Registration and Title System (RTS) Workstation Lease Pricing

Posted on August 31, 2018 by TxDMV

Please review and distribute as appropriate.

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles recently reviewed the costs for RTS workstations and determined that the annual cost to lease an RTS workstation should be amended to reflect the new state replacement cycle of six years for computer equipment. For county offices, the annual lease cost was reduced from $1,500 to $361 per year. If a cable drop is needed, there will be an additional one-time charge of $180. Also, counties that utilize full-service deputies will be required to pay $4,800 annually per full-service deputy location for the cost of the T1 circuit. The charge for the T1 circuit will not be assessed for county office locations. The attached file illustrates the new RTS workstation lease cost structure.

The new RTS workstation lease pricing goes into effect September 1, 2018. Counties will be invoiced annually by October 1 for all charges incurred during the State’s fiscal year, which runs September 1 to August 31.

Thank you,

Governor Proclaims August “Watch Your Car Month”
ABTPA Urges Texans to Protect Themselves from Auto Burglary and Theft

(AUSTIN, Texas – August 30, 2018) With the end of the summer being historically one of the riskiest seasons for vehicle burglary and theft, Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared August “Watch Your Car Month” to remind Texans they can take steps to protect their vehicles. The proclamation notes Texans experience nearly one billion dollars in losses every year due to motor vehicle burglary and theft.

“I applaud the governor for bringing more attention to the risk of auto theft and the simple steps people can take to reduce the chance their car gets stolen,” said Auto Burglary and Theft Prevention Authority (ABTPA) Chairman and Port of Brownsville Chief of Police Carlos L. Garcia.

ABTPA offers the following steps Texans can take to reduce their chances of becoming a victim of burglary or theft:

American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators’ Fraud Detection Training Modules

Posted on August 28, 2018 by TxDMV

Please review and distribute as appropriate.

American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators’ Fraud Detection Training Modules

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) would like to introduce a new eLearning training series created by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) on fraud detection.

AAMVA’s Fraud Detection & Remediation (FDR) program is the industry’s premier fraud training used by DMV’s, law enforcement, federal agencies, and corporations worldwide. AAMVA’s training modules and supplements develop skills in the authentication of documents in more than 12 categories, including:
 •   Birth Certificates
 •   Social Security Cards
 •   Military IDs and more

FDR is the most comprehensive anti-fraud toolbox available. The modularized eLearning suite provides invaluable training to anyone handling secure documents or sensitive transactions. Although this training is not mandatory, the TxDMV recognizes the importance of making this training available. Today’s technology-rich environment opens the door for fraudsters to expand their sphere of influence and corrupt the seemingly incorruptible. By arming your staff with knowledge to combat the ever-changing methods of corruption, your county will be playing a vital role in the reduction of fraud and the protection of our citizens.

This training will be available on August 29 on the TxDMV training portal located at https://learningtxdmv.articulate-online.com/Login.aspx. The training is modularized, and with the aid of the AAMVA Fraud Detection and Remediation training implementation plan, your county will be well on its way to protecting itself and from fraud.

Sample Training Modules Include:
 FDR Level 1 – Core
  •   Intro to Fraud
  •   Security Features
  •   Counterfeits and Alterations
  •   People and Actions
  •   FDR Tools
 FDR Level 1 – Driver
  •   Birth Certificates
  •   DLs and IDs
  •   Travel Documents
  •   Social Security Cards
  •   Immigration Documents
  •   Military IDs
  •   High Quality Counterfeits 1
 FDR Level 1 – Vehicle
  •   Vehicle Documents
  •   NMVTIS Investigation Tools

Additional training is also available that is geared toward managers and administrators. Please review the AAMVA’s FDR implementation guide to assist your county in determining which training modules should be completed by your staff. The implementation guide can be found on the tax assessor-collector information hub at http://www.TxDMV.gov/tax-assessor-collectors. Please email TxDMV-Learning@TxDMV.gov for questions related to the AAMVA Fraud training modules.

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles would like to Thank You for joining us in our efforts to reduce fraud and improve the services we provide to the Texas motoring public.

RTS Update (08/21/2018 @ 2:55 PM Central Time)

Posted on August 21, 2018 by TxDMV

Good afternoon,

 

The Registration and Titling System upgrade last week resulted in a significant improvement in the processing time of the nightly batch runs. Compared to the previous week, the system experienced a 54 percent increase in transaction processing speed, resulting in County Cognos reports completing by 3:30 a.m. With these improvements, we expect that even during peak activity, you should have Cognos reports available well before the start of business.  

 

TxDMV staff will continue to monitor the nightly batch reports closely and will provide another update on batch performance.  Please contact the Service Desk at 512-465-4010 or toll free at 1-877-933-2020 if you have any questions.

Last Chance for the Sale of the Century Limited Edition 100th Anniversary Texas License Plate Offer Ends August 31

100 Year Plate

(AUSTIN, Texas – August 16, 2018) An offer like this comes around only once every 100 years! The last chance for Texans to order a limited edition 100th Anniversary Texas license plate from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) is Friday, Aug. 31, 2018. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to celebrate license plates in Texas on your vehicle.

The State of Texas began issuing a standardized license plate design in 1917. To mark the 100th anniversary, TxDMV introduced a special 100 Year Plate on Sept. 1, 2017. Texans who want to show their state pride by displaying this plate on their vehicle must order before the end of August 2018.

“The specialty license plate program allows drivers to give their plates a more personal touch. Plate enthusiasts, collectors, historians and everyday Texans can commemorate this 100-year milestone by displaying a piece of plate history,” said TxDMV Executive Director Whitney Brewster.
