Nebraska Catalytic Converter Laws
Selling Catalytic Converters in Nebraska
If you’re in Nebraska and have a catalytic converter to sell, it’s important to know the rules. While Nebraska has passed laws to deter theft of converters, you can still sell yours legally — as long as you follow the state’s requirements.
What the Nebraska Law Says
Nebraska law (see Neb. Rev. Stat. § 69‑401 et seq.) treats detached catalytic converters as “regulated metals property.” Key points include:
A converter detached from a vehicle is considered regulated metal. Sellers must provide valid photo ID and buyers must keep detailed transaction records. For deliveries of catalytic converters, the buyer/broker must capture a right‐index fingerprint, a photo or video of the item, and pay by check—not cash—if certain thresholds are met. Records must be retained for at least 1 year and made available for law enforcement.
Can You Still Sell Your Converter?
✅ Yes! If you legally own your catalytic converter and you can provide the required ID and documentation, you can sell it — even under Nebraska’s regulated structure.
RRCats works with both individual sellers and businesses in Nebraska. We’ll walk you through the documentation, shipping, and payment process to ensure everything is compliant.
