FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Revenue (DOR) assume the following regarding this 
proposal:
Administrative Impact
To implement the proposed legislation the Department will be required to:
• Update procedures, correspondence letters, forms and the Department website;
• Update the Missouri Titling Manual;
• Send Communications to License offices and other Contracted stakeholders; and
• Train Staff
FY 2025 - Motor Vehicle Bureau
Associate Research/Data Analyst 40 Hrs @ $25.22 = $1,009
Lead Admin Assistant 20 Hrs @ $18.54 = $371
Administrative manager 5 Hrs @ $29.31= $146
Research/Data Analyst 10 Hrs @ $27.00 = $270
FY 2026 - Strategy and Communications Office
Associate Research/Data Analyst 10 Hrs @ $21.64 = $216
Total Cost =$2,012
 
The Department anticipates that they will be able to absorb these costs. If multiple bills are 
passed that require department resources, FTE may be requested through the appropriations 
process.
Oversight assumes DOR is provided with core funding to handle a certain amount of activity 
each year. Oversight assumes DOR could absorb the costs related to this proposal. If multiple 
bills pass which require additional staffing and duties at substantial costs, DOR could request 
funding through the appropriation process. L.R. No. 3410H.01I

Officials from the Missouri Highway Patrol (MHP) assume the following regarding this 
proposal:
The fiscal impact to the state of Missouri on vehicle inspections equates to $1.50 per each 
additional used vehicle safety inspected prior to sale, with $1.00 deposited into the Highway 
Fund (0644) and $0.50 deposited into Highway Patrol’s Inspection Fund (0297). It is unknown 
how many additional inspections, per year, would be conducted with this proposed legislation.
Oversight notes, this proposal requires a motor vehicle safety inspection be provided to the 
purchaser, unless the vehicle has less than 40,000 miles within three years of its model year.  
Oversight is unable to determine how many more vehicles will require a safety inspection as a 
result of this proposal; therefore, Oversight will reflect an “Unknown, but less than $250,000” 
fiscal impact to the Highway Fund and the Highway Patrol Inspection Fund.
Officials from the Missouri Department of Transportation assume the proposal will have no 
fiscal impact on their organization. Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. 
Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for MoDOT.

FY 2026FY 2027$0$0$0
FISCAL IMPACT – Small Business
Small businesses that provide motor vehicle inspections or sell used motor vehicles could be 
impacted by this proposal.
FISCAL DESCRIPTION
This bill requires that sellers of used motor vehicles have the vehicle inspected no more than 60 
days prior to the date of sale, and the seller must provide the purchaser with a certificate of 
inspection and approval at the point of sale. The purchaser must submit this certificate when 
registering the vehicle. The inspection requirement will not apply for the sale of motor vehicles 
having less than 40,000 miles for the three-year period following the model year of manufacture 
of the vehicle. 
The bill also provides that emission inspections will not be required for vehicles that are 
exempted from the safety inspection.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not 
require additional capital improvements or rental space.
