Current through July 13, 2024
(a) Requests by
				licensed dealers for temporary license permits shall be made to the Licensing
				Section, Wyoming Department of Transportation, 5300 Bishop Blvd., Cheyenne,
				Wyoming 82009-3340 or to Wyoming ports of entry.
(b) The fee for temporary license permits
				shall be determined by the department, and remittance shall accompany the
				order. No permits shall be issued until payment is received.
(c) Vehicle dealers shall issue a temporary
				permit for all retail vehicle sales. When issuing a temporary license permit,
				all dealers shall advise the permit holder to carry or be able to produce a
				copy of the dealer's invoice of sale on the vehicle to which the temporary
				license permit is displayed. This permit serves as evidence of actual purchase
				of the vehicle.
(d) Dealers shall
				issue temporary license permits in the same name(s) that appear(s) on the new
				title for the vehicle sold. Dealers shall not issue subsequent permits on the
				same vehicle in the same dealer's name. Lost or stolen permits shall be
				reported to the department immediately. Upon department approval, a dealer may
				issue a duplicate permit in extenuating circumstances.
(e) The dealer shall keep a sequential record
				in numerical order of every temporary license permit issued. The record shall
				be readily accessible at the dealer's principal place of business in a
				separate, permanent file. The dealer shall detach the stub portion of the
				temporary license permit when the permit is issued and forward the stubs daily
				to the Licensing and Titling Section, Wyoming Department of Transportation. If
				a temporary license permit is filled out incorrectly or the sale of the vehicle
				is rescinded, or if for some other reason the permit is unusable, the dealer
				shall void and retain the dealer copy of the permit, returning the stub and the
				window portion of the permit to the Wyoming Department of Transportation
				Licensing and Titling Section immediately, accompanied with an explanation why
				the temporary permit was voided.
(f) The required information on the permits
				shall be typed or printed using permanent ink. The expiration date shown in the
				middle of the permit shall be completed in permanent ink with large, legible
				numbers not less than 1-inch high and 1-inch wide, with 2 digits each for the
				month, day, and year. The expiration date on the temporary registration shall
				be clearly legible from a distance of at least 30 feet when displayed on the
				vehicle.
(g) The temporary license
				permit shall be displayed on the rear of the vehicle, either in the rear window
				or the license plate bracket, and in all situations in a place where the
				printed information on the permit and the expiration date can be easily seen.
(i) Temporary license permits shall not be
				placed in rear windows with less than 70 percent light transparency.
(ii) If a permit holder is used, it shall not
				cover any of the printed information on the permit, including, but not limited
				to, the expiration date.
(iii) If a
				license plate frame is used with a permit holder, it shall not cover any
				printed information or expiration date on the permit.
(iv) Temporary license permits shall be
				protected from exposure to weather and road conditions that might render the
				information on the permit illegible.
