While Nevada exempts vehicles less than 4 years old from emission testing, DMV clerks often require EC-008 when you're registering an out-of-state title, even for brand-new vehicles. The EC-008 documents for DMV records why no Nevada smog certificate is attached to your registration packet, preventing processing delays.

This confusion happens most frequently in these situations:

• California dealer purchase: You bought a 2024 or 2025 vehicle from a California dealer and are registering it in Nevada for the first time
• Out-of-state title transfer: Your vehicle is titled in another state and you're transferring to Nevada registration
• Private party purchase: You purchased a new or nearly-new vehicle from a private party in Arizona, California, or elsewhere
• Dealer packet submissions: Auto dealers handling your Nevada registration often include EC-008 to prevent DMV rejection

📋 Why DMV Wants EC-008 for New Vehicles: Nevada DMV's registration system flags any out-of-state title transfer without a Nevada emission certificate attached. The EC-008 provides written documentation that the vehicle is exempt from testing due to its age, not because you're dodging emissions requirements. This prevents your registration from being flagged for follow-up review, which adds 7-14 days to processing.

⚠️ Notarization Required: EC-008 is a jurat affidavit requiring Nevada notary signature, even for new vehicle registrations. Lake Mead Mobile Notary works with auto dealerships throughout Henderson and Las Vegas to complete dealer submission packets on-site. For private party purchases, we meet buyers at Anthem, Green Valley, or anywhere in Clark County to notarize EC-008 and bill of sale simultaneously.

💡 Pro Tip for Dealer Purchases: If you're buying a vehicle from a Nevada dealer, they should handle EC-008 as part of their registration service. If you're buying from an out-of-state dealer or private party, ask if EC-008 is needed before going to DMV. Having a notarized EC-008 ready prevents being turned away and having to make a second DMV trip after finding a notary.
