What are the guidelines for registering an out-of-state vehicle in Texas?
When registering an out-of-state vehicle in Texas, there are a few guidelines to follow. First, you need to obtain a current Vehicle Inspection Report from a Texas Department of Public Safety station. If the out-of-state title is held by a lienholder or leasing company, you must provide their written consent. You'll also need proof of liability insurance from a Texas insurance provider. Additionally, a completed Application for Texas Title and/ or Registration (Form 130-U) is necessary, along with payment for registration and any applicable fees. The vehicle identification number (VIN) will be verified, and the state of Texas will assign a new serial number if it does not conform to the federal standards. Lastly, visit your local county tax assessor-collector office to submit all required documents and complete the out-of-state vehicle registration process.
