Uniform Commercial Code - As introduced, incorporates amendments adopted to the Uniform Commercial Code by the Uniform Law Commission in 2018 and 2022. - Amends TCA Title 47.

HB 1549 amends Tennessee's Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) to incorporate updates from the Uniform Law Commission's 2018 and 2022 revisions. The bill primarily updates definitions to modernize electronic transactions, including clarifying terms like "conspicuous," "delivery" for electronic documents, "control" of electronic titles, and "electronic" records. It affects businesses, legal entities, and courts handling commercial transactions in Tennessee by standardizing how electronic records, signatures, and digital documents are treated under state law. The changes ensure Tennessee's UCC aligns with current commercial practices and federal standards for electronic commerce. The bill was introduced in January 2026 but withdrawn before committee action.
