Certificates of titles for motor vehicles; prohibit the issuance of to non-United States citizens who are using certain passports.
HB 1056 would have prohibited Mississippi from issuing motor vehicle title certificates to applicants who are not U.S. citizens and use a non-U.S. passport as identification. This procedural bill specifically amended state law to exclude foreign passports as acceptable evidence for title applications by non-citizens. It directly affects non-citizen residents attempting to title vehicles in Mississippi using foreign passports. The bill died in committee in 2026 and never became law.
