The bill, S.B. No. 1104, introduces new fingerprinting requirements for individuals applying for or holding a dealer general distinguishing number for ten or more locations. Specifically, it mandates that such applicants must submit a complete set of fingerprints to the department when applying for an original or renewal dealer general distinguishing number. However, the requirement is limited to one manager or bona fide employee per location, provided that their regular place of work is within 100 miles of the location for which the dealer number is sought. This provision allows the fingerprints from one individual to satisfy the requirements for all locations within that radius.

The bill aims to streamline the fingerprinting process while ensuring that the department has adequate information to vet applicants. It is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, allowing time for implementation and compliance with the new regulations.
