Submit a copy of your Manufacturer Authorization letter that is on the Manufacturer’s letterhead that states your dealership name, physical address, effective date and authorized signature and a 10-mile radius check will be conducted prior to the product being added to your record. NOTE: The manufacturer or the authorized distributor must be licensed in Arizona by Dealer Licensing before any new product may be sold by a dealer in this state.
If the termination of the franchise is mutual between the manufacturer and the franchisee, submit a letter from the franchisee and the manufacturer to terminate that product line from a dealership.
If the termination is not mutual, the manufacturer must submit a letter that addresses the request for termination to MVD and contain the following:
Business may not be conducted until the new principal(s) are issued a dealer license. A Motor Vehicle Dealer Application is required, a copy of the buy/sell agreement and letter(s) of termination from the manufacturer(s) as well as all requirements as outlined in the Dealer Licensing website.
Submit a written notification, signed by an owner requesting cancellation of your dealer license. Return the dealer license certificate and all dealer plates associated with the dealer license. New Motor Vehicle Dealers are required to submit a franchise letter of termination from the manufacturer.
A branch dealer license uses the same bond policy as the main license. The location must be within the same county as the main license; the owners must be the same; the business name must be the same, although a DBA may be different; franchise products may be different, if applicable.
No, the records must be stored at the physical location where business is conducted.
Complete an Add/Delete via your dealer community account including a copy of amended corporate articles or corporate minutes noting the change. If the individual is already on an existing dealer license, a Criminal Records Check is not required. If the individual owns 20% or more interest in the business they are required to go through the Criminal Records Check.
Submit a Dealer Record Amendment via your dealer community account, including a bond rider showing the updated information and required fee. No business may be conducted until you receive a revised license certificate by email. NOTE: A new motor vehicle dealer also needs a letter of authorization acknowledging the new name/location from each manufacturer of their franchised products.
Order new or additional dealer plates; if a dealer plate has been lost/stolen, request cancellation and replacement of the plate; order duplicate registration for a dealer plate; cancel a dealer plate.
