No, the application must be received and processed first prior to having an inspection scheduled and completed. You will then have to wait until the inspector contacts you for an inspection.

Inspections are scheduled by the Motor Vehicle Inspector once your application is processed. The inspector will contact you for inspection once the request for inspection has been received.

An inspection is generally scheduled within 1 to 2 weeks once the application has been received.

The inspection fee is $90.00 ($75 for the inspection and $15 for the title issuance fee). The fee should be paid in either certified funds or money order made payable to the Department of Revenue.

Section 32-8-87, Code of Alabama 1975, requires you to have a master dealer regulatory license to apply for a rebuilt inspection. Licensed motor vehicle dealers are required to become designated agents of the Department. Designated agents are required to utilize the department’s online title system to generate and submit title application data and required fees.
