Note

Formerly, the department prescribed a fee, in an amount NTE the lesser of $200 or actual cost for conducting inspections and providing written statements for deposit to General Revenue Fund (No. 0001). This was deleted by H.B. 3588, 78th Leg., R.S.

Collecting agency changed from Texas Department of Transportation (601) by H.B. 3097, 81st Leg., R.S..

Before H.B 2202, 83rd Leg., R.S., the $8 fee was deposited to State Highway Fund (No. 0006). H.B 2202, 83rd Leg., R.S. changed deposit of $8 fee from State Highway Fund (0006) to new Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Fund. New fund was not exempted in funds consolidation bill (H.B. 6) and not created. Therefore, revenue amounts were deposited to General Revenue (0001).

S.B. 1512, 84th Leg., R.S. recreated the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Fund and it was exempted by H.B. 6, 84th Leg., R.S. Deposit of $8 fee changed from General Revenue to Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Fund (0010). Effective 9/1/16.
