VIN Inspection - Titles Archives | Kansas Highway Patrol, KS

I purchased a BRAND NEW car from a dealership. Does it need a VIN Inspection?

No. If the vehicle you purchased has NEVER BEEN TITLED, it does not need a VIN inspection. The signed manufacturer’s statement/certificate of origin (MSO/MCO) you receive from the dealership at the time of purchase will suffice. Be sure to take that with you when you go to the County Treasure to get your license plates.
