A bill for an act relating to administrative fees charged by motor vehicle dealers, and making penalties applicable.
HF 758 changes Iowa law to replace "documentary fee" with "administrative fee" for motor vehicle dealers charging customers for document preparation and related services. It removes the current $180 maximum fee limit while requiring dealers to still include the fee in vehicle prices and prominently disclose it in advertisements and purchase agreements. The bill updates the required disclosure notice wording to reflect the new fee name, stating it is not an official fee or law requirement. Dealers must continue following existing rules about fee disclosure and advertising.
