Error 0212: Understanding and Resolving the Issue

Error 0212 indicates a mismatch between the transaction type of the Record Data File (RDF) you are processing and the current transaction you are attempting. For example, if an RDF was initiated as a transfer for a new owner's name but you are trying to perform a Duplicate Title transaction, these two types do not align.

Steps to Resolve Error 0212

1. Check Existing Key Status Report (KSR):

   First, verify if there is an existing KSR for the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in question. If it shows that a dealer transfer was started, proceed with processing as a Dealer Transfer Resubmit instead of opting for Duplicate Title Resubmit. This should facilitate successful completion without further issues.

2. Verify Planned Non-Operation (PNO) Fees:

   Ensure that any fees related to PNO are accurately generated based on whether the vehicle was in dealer inventory before its expiration date. Be aware that penalties incurred after expiration will be due unless exceptions apply, particularly if it wasn’t in dealer inventory prior to July 14, 2024.

Understanding "Dealer Inventory Registration Deferred"

The term "Dealer Inventory Registration Deferred" refers to vehicles temporarily exempt from registration fees while under dealer inventory as of specific dates. The reason registration fees were not collected is typically because the vehicle’s expiration occurred before this dealer inventory date; thus making those fees applicable once again.
