operated on the public streets and highways of this state, including vehicles in dealership inventory.
Evidence of liability insurance for business and inventory vehicles shall be filed with the initial

Applicants applying for Trailer only and Dismantler only
permits are excluded from the liability insurance requirement.

they are not allowed to retail vehicles to individuals, only to licensed dealers. They are not required
to have a physical location, but may only maintain an inventory of two (2) vehicles and can receive
one (1) wholesale dealer tag. A wholesale only dealer will be issued a sales tax wholesale account
number. These permits are issued only for Mississippi Residents.

fact that you will not sell any motor vehicles and/or manufactured homes, the requirement of the bond
of designated agent and number will be waived and no dealer tags will be issued.
