e-Tag Updates

(Updated: October 24, 2008)

Although the e-Tag system is still being tested and its use is not yet mandatory, please begin using it for all tags immediately.

Please begin collecting the $5 Buyer Tag Fee if you are not already doing so.

e-Tag System Troubleshooting

There may still be a few problems generating e-Tag images. Frequently, processing problems are the result of various types of Internet service, computer equipment and software being used.

Please see our e-Tag Dealer FAQs for minimum computer requirements.

e-Tag Workarounds

Here is a series of workarounds for common problems:

Problem 1: I can enter my data, view and print the e-Tag images.

  • Your system is working properly. Thank you for your patience.

Problem 2: I can log onto the system and enter data but I can’t print the e-Tag images.

  • Please enter the data into the system as you normally would.
  • After generating the tags (at the printing step) write down the VIN, e-TAG number and all relevant information and then manually enter them into the new templates.
  • After that print and bag as usual.
  • See the e-Tag Dealer FAQs for information on obtaining new templates.

Problem 3: I can’t get all of my information out of the system.

  • Your desired DBA may not be listed or other information may be missing from the tag data.
  • If nothing is working, you may continue to use the old templates, located in the table at the bottom of this page, until use of the system is made mandatory.
  • Please continue working with us to resolve your e-TAG issues during this period.
  • To help us serve you better, please read the e-Tag Dealer FAQs.

If you cannot resolve your issue, please provide feedback with as much specific information as possible so we can troubleshoot the problem.
