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. It adds Section 503.0292 to Subchapter B, Chapter 503 of the Transportation Code, specifying that the Texas Department of Transportation may require a complete set of fingerprints from a manager or bona fide employee at each location for which the dealer is applying. However, the bill allows for a single set of fingerprints to satisfy the requirement for all locations within 100 miles of the employee's regular workplace.

This legislation aims to streamline the fingerprinting process while ensuring that the department has adequate information for background checks. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
