They will have all of the information on how to obtain a Used Car Dealers license.I don't know about Texas but here in Georgia where I live you can't just become a dealer by paying some license fee. You have to have two licenses. A business license to operate a small business in the state and a separate Used Car dealer license that allows you to buy and sell used cars. In order to qualify for the Used Car license you have to put up a $20K bond. You have to have a physical business address suitable for retail car sales (rent a used car lot) you have to have a business phone number and pay for proper signage and have them displayed at the business address.In other words it's not a simple or cheap hobby to do part time. At least not here in GA. You’ll need to contact the Secretary Of State office for Texas. They will have all of the information on how to obtain a Used Car Dealers license.
