HB 1018 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to motor vehicle inspection requirements for certain motor vehicles previously registered or titled in a state other than Missouri

HB 1018 modifies Missouri's vehicle registration process for vehicles previously titled in another state. It requires owners to apply for a Missouri certificate of ownership within 30 days of acquiring the vehicle (or 30 days after receiving dealer title in specific cases) and undergo an inspection by the Missouri state highway patrol, unless they provide proof of a comparable inspection from the previous state. The inspection costs $25 (waivable with proof), and late applications incur a $25 penalty per 30-day period (capped at $200), with failure to comply risking registration cancellation. This applies directly to residents moving vehicles from out-of-state into Missouri.
