Do I Become A Car Dealer Check list to get all
of your questions answered. All California vehicle dealer
applicants must take a mandatory six-hour course training
as mandated by the Department of Motor Vehicles before obtaining
a vehicle dealer license. We conduct the courses throughout
California.
There are three easy steps to becoming
a car dealer in the State for California. 1) Enroll in the New Dealer Class in the city closest
to you. The new car dealer licensing class is $150 payable
online via paypal, credit card or in person at the class.
Once you take the class you must contact you DMV Inspector
and take the Car Dealer License test. 2) After you have completed the DMV Dealer test
you must prepare a location. First, obtain a zoning letter,
then set up a location and get a dealer bond. 3) Now that you have your location, zoning letter
and dealer bond in place, contact your DMV Inspector, prepare
the necessary photos, signs and parking spots. The DMV
Inspector will visit your location and approve your location
if everything is in place. You will then be issued a temporary
Car Dealer License.
