Dealer and Fleet Services
Dealerships and fleet service companies utilize the below drop-off or mail-in process for titling and registering vehicles. Johnson County does not offer in-person services for dealerships or fleet service companies.
To register recently purchased vehicles using dealer or fleet services:
1. Gather required documents
| Original Title/MCO | We cannot accept a copy of the title or MCO. You must provide the original title or Manufacturer Certificate of Origin. |
| VIN Inspection from Kansas Highway Patrol | For more information, visit Kansas Highway Patrol Motor Vehicle Enforcement |
| Dealer/Fleet Cover Sheet & Title and Registration Manual Application | Complete form |
2. Gather additional documents that may apply to you
| Power of Attorney or Secure Power of Attorney | Required if someone besides the owner is signing any required documents. If the same entity or two agents from the same company are signing as buyer and seller, a Secure Power of Attorney may be required. |
| Sales Tax Receipt | Required if purchased from a Kansas dealer. |
| Bill of Sale | Required only if purchase price and purchase date are not listed on the title, or if purchased from an out of state dealer. |
| Lien Release | Required if the current title shows a lien and you have paid off the loan. For more information, visit our Lien Release page. |
| Certificate of Trust | Required if titling in the trust’s name or if the original owner was listed as a trust. |
3. Drop-off or mail-in all required documents
All documents must be mailed in or dropped off to the Olathe Motor Vehicle office located at 782 N Ridgeview Rd, Olathe, KS 66061.
We will not accept documents sent to our Mission or Administration locations.
Documents can be dropped-off in the secure Dealer/Fleet Drop Box outside the Olathe Motor Vehicle office.
4. Payment Options
Invoices for title work will be emailed directly to the dealer or title agency submitting the title work. If an email is not provided, the invoice will be mailed instead. Residents may not meet the paperwork in office to process.
| Pay Online | After an invoice is received, payment can be made online as early as the following business day at https://jocogov.org/online-bill-pay with the account number provided on the invoice along with the last six digits of the VIN. |
| Pay with Check |
You can mail a copy of the invoice with a check made payable to Johnson County DMV to |
Once payment is received, the completed work will be sent via standard mail to the dealer or title agency.
For those requesting a specific mailing service, an envelope and pre-paid shipping label must be included with the initial documentation. Please note that mailing labels cannot be assigned to work after submission.
5. Incomplete/Incorrect documentation
If we find that the title work provided is incomplete or requires a correction, we will email you an explanation of what needs to be provided before the transaction can be processed. We will hold these incomplete documents for up to 30 days to give you time to fulfill the additional documentation requests. After 30 days, if we are still unable to complete the work, it will be mailed back to you.
Please let us know in advance if you prefer all work be immediately returned if incomplete or incorrect. If you choose not to participate in the above process, all your transactions will be opted out. You may not opt out for individual transactions.
Questions or concerns about the Dealer/Fleet process can be directed to dmv@jocogov.org or (913) 826-1800.
