Division of Motor Vehicles passing credit card fees to users
BOISE - Effective Sunday (June 1), the Idaho Transportation Department began charging a vendor processing fee to customers who use credit cards to complete some Division of Motor Vehicle transactions.
The department had been absorbing processing fees for on-line credit card transactions completed through Access Idaho, but the Idaho Transportation Board instituted a new policy that calls for passing the fees on to customers. Among the transactions covered by the new policy are:
* Annual overlegal permits for commercial vehicles
* Temporary trip permits for commercial vehicles
* Commercial full-fee registration renewals
* Personal driver license record searches, and
* Purchases of personalized license plates.
