E-Signing in Arizona for Car Dealers: What You Need to Know
In Arizona, car dealerships are embracing the digital age, but when it comes to electronic signatures, strict guidelines remain in place to ensure security, authenticity, and legal compliance.
ADOT’s E-Signature Requirements
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) allows electronic signatures under specific conditions. According to ADOT’s official policy, an electronic signature is only accepted when:
It is the customer’s original signature captured using an electronic signature pad.
This ensures the signature is genuine and captured in-person with a device that records a direct input from the signer. A watermark may appear alongside the signature to verify its authenticity.
No other electronic signature collection methods (such as typed signatures, stylus signatures on tablets without pad verification, or image-based uploads) are currently accepted for MVD processes.
Odometer Disclosure Specifics
ADOT has released a new Electronic Odometer Disclosure Form (form #96-0695), replacing the old green triplicate forms. This PDF form is designed for use only with an electronic signature pad—handwritten signatures are not allowed. Once properly signed, however, the form can be printed and submitted to MVD or any authorized third-party MVD office in Arizona, making it both compliant and convenient for dealers handling title transfers
