Dealer Dept.
Dealer and Financial Institutions
In order to comply with a new State Statute, the Rutherford County Clerk's Office performs an office wide assessment of the Internal Controls over our financial operations.  One of the items that emerged from the assessment was the need to strengthen our controls of how we process dealer work and bulk paperwork, etc.

Therefore, effective September 1, 2016, the Rutherford County Clerk's Office will require a separate check per deal for the exact amount.

NOTE:  If paperwork or check is not correct, the deal will be returned.

Dealership EZ Tag Program
Dealerships are able to utilize EZ Tag to print temporary tags on demand. With this program, Dealerships no longer have to keep inventory of stock tags. It also eliminates the need of an audit log book, saving Dealerships time!
