Bulletin | January 21, 2026

Updated:

Date: January 24, 2024
Bulletin: All Dealers and Tag and Title Agencies
From: Business Licensing and Compliance

PURPOSE
To inform the Dealer and Tag & Title community about the ability to update a customer’s
address in an ERT system.

SUMMARY
Effective January 24, 2024, dealers and tag and title entities will be able to update a Maryland
resident’s MVA address prior to processing a title/registration transaction if the address on the
resident’s MD license or MVA-issued ID card is not their most recent and accurate address.

Please note a few important items:

  • You can only process the address change for Maryland residents who have a valid
    Maryland issued Driver’s license or MVA-issued ID card with a Maryland address.
  • Make sure to process and complete the change of address transaction first, and then
    complete any other title/registration transactions second.
