Tennessee HB2478 amends county real property records procedures, requiring identification checks and prohibiting fees for copying identification.
Tennessee HB2478 modifies county real property records procedures by requiring individuals to present a government-issued identification card when transferring real property. The register of deeds must copy or record information from this card, but cannot charge a fee for this service. The information remains confidential. The bill also specifies that a document is not invalid if the county clerk did not copy or record the identification information. This change applies to counties with a population of at least 900,000, as per the 2020 federal census.
