Salesperson's End of Employment
The dealer and the salesperson have responsibilities to address when a salesperson’s employment ends.
Responsibilities of the Salesperson
Salespersons must surrender their salesperson’s license immediately upon the end of their employment.
For information about transferring to another dealership, please see Transfer of Salesperson License.
Responsibilities of the Dealer
The dealer is responsible for a salesperson’s actions in motor vehicle sales until the board is notified of their end of employment. Dealers should immediately notify the MVDB once a salesperson is no longer employed.
Surrendering Salesperson License
Upon termination of a salesperson, the Dealer should make every possible effort to obtain the salesperson’s license and send it to the Motor Vehicle Dealer Board. Please write “TERMINATE” on the license, sign and date it. If you use the MVDB 41 , attach the terminated license directly to the form below.
If the Dealer is unable to obtain the terminated salesperson’s license, the Dealer must communicate this to the Board by email, so the Board’s records can properly reflect this.
Virginia law (§ 46.2‐1518) states in part that the Dealer must notify the Board “not later than the tenth day following the month of the termination”. Dealers should not wait until the renewal period to notify the Board of a termination.
Notifying the MVDB of a Salesperson's End of Employment
Dealers should use the web form provided below to report salesperson terminations. This form allows for the submission of up to five terminations per entry. Please include the salesperson’s full name, license number, and termination date.
