The automotive sales and service business will probably never be a paperless industry. There are multiple forms to be completed with each transaction and each form must be complete, with all information correct and in the proper place. It's a wonder, sometimes, that anyone completes an automotive sales transaction!

Just for starters, there are forms to file with the State to apply for your dealership permits. Then there are forms to be completed with each transaction. There are different forms for new car dealerships and used car dealerships and for titles, transfers, repossessions, liens, releases, and just about anything else related to the buying or selling of automobiles.

All new and used motor vehicle dealerships are governed by the Oklahoma Motor Vehicle Commission (OMVC).
