Nevada VP‑198 Affidavit of Non‑Residency – Fillable PDF

The VP‑198 Affidavit of Non‑Residency is the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) form used when a vehicle owner needs to prove they are not a Nevada resident for registration purposes. This form must be notarized or signed by an authorized DMV representative, and all signatures must be original.

What Is the VP‑198 Form?

VP‑198 is a one‑page affidavit that collects:

• Owner’s full name and address
• Vehicle identification number (VIN)
• Statement of non‑residency
• Notary or DMV representative signature and seal

The form is required for out‑of‑state owners who are registering a vehicle in Nevada but do not live in the state.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Do not use photocopies of the affidavit – the DMV requires original signatures.
• Never alter the form after it has been signed; any changes invalidate the document.
• Make sure the VIN matches the vehicle you are registering; mismatched numbers cause delays.
• Check that the notary’s stamp and signature are clearly legible.
