Motor Vehicle Administration records: personal information disclosure and recipient limits

MD MVA Records Privacy
active

Maryland's counterpart to the federal Driver's Privacy Protection Act bars the MVA from disclosing personal information in its records except for listed purposes, and never for marketing or telephone solicitation without written consent. Businesses that receive the data may use it only for the permitted purpose, must log redisclosures for 5 years, and may not pass it to federal immigration enforcement without a court warrant; the 2026 Data Privacy Act (ch. 874) broadened the immigration-related limits.
