Document Activation

How do I submit the documents for activation?

After you choose your Membership, Copart will ask you some questions about who you are, what kinds of vehicles you want to buy, and where you want to buy them. This information will help us determine what legal documents and licenses you’ll need to upload to participate in auctions in the places where you are interested in buying.

Document Assistance System

Copart created a system to help you determine what legal documents you'll need to upload and what qualifications you will need to meet in order to bid on vehicles in specific states. At each step, the Document Assistance system will prompt you to upload the required documents as you go through registration. The list of required documents it gives you works like a to-do list. 

To make things easy, you can often upload images of documents by scanning them, or simply taking a picture with your mobile device.

Once your documents are uploaded, we’ll review them and notify you when your account has been verified. This usually takes one business day.

If you want to submit documents after you’ve created your account, just go to the Document Uploader under the Account menu in the top right corner of your screen. You can open it by clicking or tapping on your name and/or photo.

No License/No Problem

If you lack the right documentation to buy a vehicle, Copart can connect you with a Broker with the proper credentials.  If you are an international buyer, Copart can connect you with a Certified Reseller or a Copart Lounge in your region who can help you register, bid, pay, import the vehicle you like.
