Important eTAG and webDEALER Update

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) will update the eTAG system (the system used for Buyer Tags). 

This change will move eTAG into webDEALER (the title application system). webDEALER will become the system to work from for the creation of Buyer Tags (or other tags). Note: Your current username and password will not change.

TxDMV is providing training webinars to highlight the changes associated with this update. Click here for training information and links to register for an upcoming webinar.
