Code of Virginia - Title 46.2 Motor Vehicles - Section 46.2-216.1 Acceptance of electronic filing in lieu of written documents

§ 46.2-216.1. Acceptance of electronic filing in lieu of written documents

Whenever this title provides that a written certificate or other document is to be filed with the Department, the Commissioner may establish procedures for and accept in lieu of such paper document a filing made by electronic means. Such filing by electronic means shall be accepted only if the content of the filing satisfies all of the requirements of the statute which provides for the written document and the Commissioner has made a written, affirmative finding that the lack of a paper document will not compromise or reduce the effectiveness of the record-keeping system established by the statute. The Commissioner shall develop a method to ensure that the electronic filing is received and stored accurately and that it is readily available to satisfy the requirements of the statutes which call for a written document.
