  • A printed copy of the electronic 2290 received by the owner if they filed electronically. Electronically-filed 2290 printouts have an e-file watermark including a received date diagonally printed across the form.
    • A current year Form 2290 must be submitted.
    • A 2290 marked or stamped as "Proof of Delivery" is NOT acceptable.
    • The complete VIN must be listed on the 2290 or its attachment. Whiteout, strikeouts or a partial VIN are not acceptable. It must be entirely legible and clearly unaltered.
