Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Electronic vehicle titles with paper options

Wyoming’s Department of Transportation must run a statewide electronic system for vehicle titles, liens, and required sales or use tax payments. The system supports electronic applications, transfers, and signatures. People not normally involved in vehicle financing can use it or request paper titles through a county clerk. Mobile-home titles are excluded from the system’s rules.

Vehicle title transactions may carry fees

A contracted vendor may charge a fee for each electronic title-system transaction to recover development, setup, and operating costs. The law sets no fee amount and does not require vendors to charge one. Vendors cannot charge the state or counties. The law does not specify which private users pay.

Vehicle businesses must use electronic titles

Dealers, lenders, lienholders, insurance companies, secured parties, and all Wyoming counties must use the electronic lien and title system. The required-use rule does not apply to people not normally involved in the business or practice of financing vehicles.
