Verify motor vehicle dealer, wholesaler, repair shop and inspection station licenses in bulk from official state DMV registries — the businesses, not the car listings.
Who this is for
Auto auctions and floor-plan lenders confirming a buyer holds a dealer license. Parts, warranty, F&I and DMS software vendors prospecting by license type. Insurers underwriting dealers and repair shops. Fleet managers finding licensed inspection stations.
What you get
One record per licensed business: business_name, license_number, credential (New Car Dealer, Used Car Dealer, Wholesale Dealer, Repair Shop, Public Inspection Station, Dismantler and the rest — New York's codes are decoded), city / zip_code / county, issue_date and expiration_date in MM/DD/YYYY, expires_in_days, and status. Washington adds phone and bond status; New York adds the owner name and last renewal date.
New York and Connecticut publish an expiration date but no status word, so status there is computed from the expiry and every record says so in status_basis. Washington publishes a real status column, kept as the state's own word.
One schema across every source
Every roster in this catalogue delivers the same columns, in the same order, meaning the same thing — whichever state or file the record came from. Names arrive SHOUTING; they leave in proper case as full_name, first_name, last_name, with name_raw holding the source's exact rendering. Dates are MM/DD/YYYY, with an _iso twin for spreadsheets and imports. The source's own word is never thrown away.
Full column reference: docs/SCHEMA.md in the source repository.

Every profession we cover includes every state we can reach through official published data. States that expose these licenses only through one-name-at-a-time lookup tools are added the moment they publish a real file. If a state you need is missing, ask.
