These pages explain the Georgia used motor vehicle dealer license in plain language. They were checked in November 2026 against the Official Code of Georgia, the Board rules, the Board's application, and Department of Revenue pages. They are general information, not legal advice. Where the sources disagree, the page says so. Confirm a dollar amount or a deadline with the Board or the Department before you rely on it.

Questions people ask
What do these Georgia dealer license guides cover?
They cover the used motor vehicle dealer license: who needs it, the office and inspection, the surety bond, the pre-licensing seminar, cost, renewal, dealer plates, and wholesale versus retail. Each page names the statute, rule, or form it relies on.
Does a guide mean the Board will approve my application?
No. The guides are general information. The Board decides whether to issue or renew a license. The Department of Revenue decides dealer plates and the sales and use tax return.

We prepare filings. We do not guarantee Board approval. We do not approve zoning. For a suite leased through the AutoDealerGA platform, Omni Consultants, LLC provides zoning documentation for that suite. The local zoning authority decides zoning. The Board decides whether to issue the license.
