Form VTR-901. Purchaser's Certification of Export-Only Sale - Texas

The Form VTR-901 is a certification form used in Texas for export-only sales of motor vehicles. This form serves as a declaration by the purchaser that the vehicle being sold will be exported out of the United States and will not be registered or operated on public roads within the state.

This form typically consists of sections where important information needs to be provided. These sections generally include details about the purchaser, seller, vehicle identification number (VIN), make, model, year, and other relevant vehicle information. The purchaser must sign the form to certify their intent to export the vehicle.

When filling out this form, it is important to provide accurate and complete information. It is crucial to verify the purchaser's identity and ensure their acknowledgment and compliance with the export-only terms. The seller should also carefully review the information provided and retain a copy of the completed form for their records.

No additional documents are typically required to be attached to this form. However, it is essential to maintain appropriate records and documentation related to the export transaction for auditing and compliance purposes.

An example use case for Form VTR-901 would be when a dealership or individual sells a vehicle specifically for export purposes. By completing this form, the purchaser assures that the vehicle will not be used or registered for road use within Texas but will instead be exported to another country.

A related alternative form is Form VTR-901-A, which is an annual certification form used for ongoing export-only sales. This form is submitted annually by the purchaser to certify that all previously purchased vehicles under export-only conditions continue to meet the export requirements. The main difference between Form VTR-901 and Form VTR-901-A is the frequency of submission and the validation of ongoing compliance with export-only conditions.
