Indiana Code - Motor Vehicles - Title 9, Section 9-23-3-6.5

Document preparation fees

Sec. 6.5. It is an unfair practice for a dealer to require a purchaser
of a motor vehicle as a condition of the sale and delivery of the
motor vehicle to pay a document preparation fee, unless the fee:
(1) reflects expenses actually incurred for the preparation of
documents;
(2) was affirmatively disclosed by the dealer;
(3) was negotiated by the dealer and the purchaser;
(4) is not for the preparation, handling, or service of documents

that are incidental to the extension of credit; and
(5) is set forth on a buyer's order or similar agreement by a
means other than preprinting.

As added by P.L.102-1991, SEC.1.
