Summary

SB 1632 - This act modifies provisions relating to motor vehicles. DEALER COLLECTION OF SALES TAX (Section 144.070) Current law provides that, upon the development of the integrated motor vehicle registration system, motor vehicle dealers shall collect and remit sales taxes for all motor vehicles sold by the dealer. This act also requires the dealer to collect and remit sales tax on any boat or outboard motor sold by the dealer. The act requires a motor vehicle dealer to collect and remit sales tax for any motor vehicle, trailer, boat, or other titled property sold by the dealer to a purchaser who is not a resident of this state. The dealer shall not be required to determine the tax rate of the purchaser's state of residence. This act is substantially similar to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026), CCS#2/HCS/SB 1020 (2026), and HCS/SB 1408 (2026). MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION (Section 301.010, 301.020, 301.030, 301.050, 301.055, 301.070, 301.110, 301.140, 301.147, 301.190) Current law requires applications for a registration of motor vehicles and trailers to include the applicant's name. This act requires the inclusion of the applicant's full legal name as it appears on the applicant's driver license, nondriver license, or permit. Current law establishes twelve motor vehicle registration periods, each starting on the first day of each calendar month. This act repeals such language. Current law provides for motor vehicle registration fees based on the horsepower of the vehicle, along with a penalty fee of five dollars for delinquent registrations. This act provides for a flat registration fee of twenty five dollars for passenger motor vehicles and increases the delinquency fee to twenty five dollars for the first month of delinquency and an additional twenty five dollars for each additional consecutive month of delinquency, not to exceed two hundred dollars. This act authorizes the Director of Revenue to stagger the collection of alternative fuel decal fees and the issuance of alternative fuel decals so that the issuance of the decal occurs at the time of vehicle registration and the decal is valid for the duration of the registration period. Current law authorizes the use of transferred plates and temporary permits for a period longer than thirty days under certain conditions. Additionally, current law authorizes the transfer of plates for a fee of two dollars plus a pro rata portion of any increased fee based on a difference in registration type. This act increases such transfer fees to ten dollars, as described in the act. The act requires the Department to issue a nontransferable in-transit plate for motor vehicles, trailers, and boats purchased by nonresidents, as described in the act. Finally, the term "temporary permit" is replaced with "interim plate" throughout the act. Current law requires any vehicle with biennial registration that is manufactured as an even-numbered model year vehicle to be renewed each even-numbered calendar year, and each vehicle manufactured as an odd-numbered model year vehicle to be renewed each odd-numbered calendar year. This act repeals such requirement. Current law requires an application for a certificate of ownership to include the applicant's identification number. This act instead requires the applicant's full legal name as it appears on the applicant's driver license, nondriver license, or permit. If an owner desires to add or delete a name or names on an application for certificate of ownership, this act requires the name or names to be consistent with the names noted on the notice of lien. This act is substantially similar to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026) and similar to provisions in CCS#2/HCS/SB 1020 (2026) and HCS/SB 1408 (2026). DISABILITY PLACARD RENEWALS (Section 301.142) Current law requires removable windshield placards for physically disabled persons to be renewed every four years. This act changes the renewal period to every eight years, and allows the Department of Revenue to automatically renew current valid disabled placards until all permanent disabled placards are on an eight year renewal cycle. This act is identical to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026), MOTOR VEHICLE DEALER LICENSING (Section 301.550, 301.560, and 301.570) Current law requires a person or entity to sell six or more vehicles in a calendar year in order to meet the definition of "motor vehicle dealer" and obtain a license to sell motor vehicles. This act increases the threshold number of vehicles to twelve. Current law requires the issuance of a distinctive dealer license number or certificate number upon the renewal of a dealer license plate. This act instead requires the issuance of a renewal tab to be placed on the lower right corner of the plate or certificate, with the cost of the renewal tab equal to the costs for dealer license plates. Additionally, the act provides that the dealer license plate fee shall be increased from fifty dollars to fifty dollars per plate. This act is identical to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026) and HCS/HB 1408 (2026), and similar to provisions in CCS#2/HCS/SB 1020 (2026). Federal REAL I.D. Act (Section 302.170) Current law requires the Department to inform applicants for a REAL ID compliant driver's license or identification card that electronic copies of source documents will be destroyed after the minimum time required by federal law. This act repeals such provision and provides that the Department will retain such documents. Additionally, a provision requiring the Department to inform applicants for a non-REAL ID compliance driver's license that copies of source documents will not be retained by the Department unless permitted by law is repealed. This act is identical to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026) and HCS/HB 1408 (2026), and similar to provisions in CCS#2/HCS/SB 1020 (2026). MOTOR VEHICLE INSPECTIONS (Sections 307.350 and 643.315) Current law requires the vehicle and emissions inspections for an even-numbered model year vehicle to be conducted in each even-numbered calendar year and in each odd-numbered calendar year for an odd-numbered model year vehicle. This act repeals such requirements. This act is identical to provisions in HCS/HB 3316 (2026), similar to provisions in CCS#2/HCS/SB 1020 (2026). EFFECTIVE DATE Certain sections of the act shall be effective as soon as technologically possible following development and maintenance of the Department's electronic titling and registration system.
