Vehicle Inspection Stations in Texas

The largest concentration is in Austin: 20 of 787 (3%). Other cities covered include Alvin (12), Baytown (11), Allen (10), Arlington (10), Beaumont (10), and 311 more.

These 787 entries come from a register that publishes no license dates at all. For those, the only thing that can honestly be said is that the facility appeared in the state register when it was last refreshed, on September 23, 2026. No issue, renewal or expiry date is shown for them, and none is guessed.

All 787 publish a phone number. Phone numbers are normalized to one format here; the registers publish them several different ways.

The map positions were derived from the published street address through the US Census Bureau geocoder. No distance claim is made anywhere in this text; the "nearest to me" list computes straight-line distances in your own browser from your own location.

205 of the 787 entries could not be placed on a map: the register gives a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction rather than a street address, and 205 of those are currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, and left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Guessing a plausible position for a PO box would be worse than admitting there is not one.

Texas ranks 10th of the 27 states covered in this category, holding 1% of the listings, ahead of 17 others.

For a wider choice, the largest states in this category are Pennsylvania (32354), New York (10438), California (5974). They are ordered by how many entries each holds, not by how close they are.

Every record on this page comes from Active vehicle inspection station locator, published by Texas Department of Public Safety on dps.texas.gov as dataset VIactiveStationLocator. Each card carries the date the record was last re-checked.
