SB 72 Original 2026 Regular Session Hodges

Proposed law provides for documents required in connection with the sale, transfer, titling, registration, or encumbrance of a motor vehicle to be submitted in electronic form when the office of motor vehicles or its agents have the technological capability to do so.

Proposed law provides that the legal effect or enforceability of a document cannot be disputed solely due to its electronic form.

Proposed law provides that when the technology exists any document required to be notarized in connection with a motor vehicle transaction may be notarized electronically or by remote online notarization in accordance with the Remote Online Notarization Act.

Effective August 1, 2026.
