New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission STATE OF NEW JERSEY Business Licensing Services Bureau P.O. Box 172 Trenton, New Jersey 08666-0172 (609) 292-6500 #5014 February 2009 NOTICE TO ALL AUTO BODY REPAIR FACILITIES Re: Auto Body Heavy Duty Vehicle Endorsement On April 18, 2005, N.J.A.C. 13:21-21.2(d), the state regulation that affects licensed auto body repair facilities that perform auto body repair to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 14,000 pounds or more, became effective. The law requires that, in addition to the basic auto body repair license, auto body repair facilities that perform work on vehicles that fall within that weight classification must also apply for a heavy duty vehicle endorsement. To ensure full compliance, the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission ("Commission") requires that all currently licensed auto body repair facilities that qualify pursuant to this statute must submit an application for a heavy duty vehicle endorsement. To facilitate the process, the Commission has enclosed a package containing initial applications for the auto body heavy duty endorsement and municipal zoning approval, a list of requirements and detailed instructions for your information and convenience. Licensees should read each document carefully to ensure that all required information and supporting documentation are submitted with an application for the endorsement. Failure to provide all required information and fees may result in the delay of the issuance of the endorsement. An endorsement will be issued as a separate document and will bear a different number from the auto body repair license number. The license and the endorsement must both be displayed in a conspicuous area at the facility. A licensee's current auto body repair license will remain in effect, pending the Commission's receipt of an application for the endorsement. However, if the licensee qualifies for the endorsement and fails to submit an application, the licensee's auto body repair license may be subject to suspension and the imposition of a civil penalty. The licensee will be notified in writing of any administrative action against the auto body repair license. All questions should be directed to the Business Licensing Services Bureau at (609) 292-6500 #5014. Licensees should have their auto body repair license numbers available when calling the Commission. Thank you for your cooperation.
