may buy and sell at both wholesale and retail.

• Ifyouwillhaveretail sales of cars, trucks, and/or

motor homes, and/or sell any of them new, you must

select the Motor Vehicle Dealer endorsement. (A

retail endorsement allows wholesale sales.) Sales of

vehicles other than cars, trucks and motor homes are

covered only in the various other retail endorsements.

• ALicensed Auctioneer needs only the Motor Vehicle

Dealer endorsement to sell, at auction, all of the

vehicle classes including vessels up to 25 feet in

length, and is exempt from having to obtain temporary

subagency endorsements. (See also section D.)

endorsement in the state of Washington, and the

place of business may be located outside of the state.

However, there are other requirements for resident

agents or employees. Contact Dealer Services

for more information. You must attach a list of the

names and endorsement numbers of all dealers in

Washington which sell your product.

those vessels or vehicles may be transported on the

highway, you must also have a Miscellaneous Vehicle

Section B: License plates/decals required

Indicate how many dealer license plates or vessel

decals you require for each of the dealer licenses you

marked in Section A. The plates/decals allow you

to operate an unlicensed vehicle or vessel in your

possession for demonstration or transport purposes

only.

Per RCW 46.70.090, you are limited to three license

plates for any of the four regular Motor Vehicle Dealer

license types (listed in Column 1 of Section B of the

addendum), unless your sales volume allows issuance

of more plates. To calculate the maximum allowed, you

must: 1. Estimate your sales volume for the next 12

months for one license type alone. 2. Multiply that number

by 6% (.06). 3. Round any fractions up to the next whole

number. This is the maximum number of plates that you

may request. Repeat this calculation for each endorsement

type in Column 1 that applies to this location. (Note: No

calculations are necessary for the specialty plates or

vessel decals listed in Column 2.)

All dealer license plate inventory is assigned to the

principal dealership business location. If you are applying

for a subagency endorsement on this application, the

number of plates you request are considered to be in

addition to those already issued to, or requested for the

principal location.

Section C: New vehicle sales

Indicate whether you will be selling any new vehicles

at this location. If you sell new vehicles you must attach a

manufacturer you list. The sales and service agreement

repair and replacement, a letter from the manufacturer

containing the following information will sufﬁce:

“This will afﬁrm that ______________________

Name of dealer

has in effect a service agreement with

_____________________________________

Name of manufacturer or distributor

and that the above captioned dealer will perform,

upon demand of any customer receiving a new vehicle

warranty, the service, repair and replacement work

required of the above captioned manufacturer or

distributor by such vehicle warranty.”

The statement must be signed and dated by a

representative of the manufacturer or distributor and a

representative of the vehicle dealer.

2. If your dealership will arrange to have the warranty

service, repair and replacement performed elsewhere,

you must attach a copy of the actual franchise or sales

agreement document which clearly spells out the

duties of each of the parties and gives full particulars

of how you will “arrange for service, repair and

replacement work.”

this section mark “Yes” in the appropriate areas. You must

also comply with any requirements listed for the exemption.
