Alaska Licensing Requirements

Buying for personal use in Alaska? You have the green light! This means you can purchase clean and salvage titled vehicles without business licenses. If you're buying in another state, view the Licensing Map.

In Alaska, dealers, dismantlers, general businesses and exporters are recommended to provide Copart an operational license and sales tax exemption forms. This expands bidding eligibility for those looking to buy in states that do require licenses. Non auto-related businesses will be charged sales tax on purchases made in states that have a sales tax.

Dealer licenses issued by the Alaska Department of Administration and business licenses issued by the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development are accepted.
