Duplicate Title
Losing or damaging a vehicle title can be stressful, but replacing it doesn’t have to be. If you’ve lost, misplaced, stolen, or damaged your original vehicle title, you’ll need a duplicate title to prove legal ownership. At Auto Tags & Titles of South Florida, we make the duplicate title process simple and quick.
What Is a Duplicate Title?
A duplicate title is an official replacement document issued when the original title is lost, stolen, or damaged beyond recognition. Without a valid title, you cannot legally sell, transfer, or register your vehicle.
Who Needs a Duplicate Title?
A duplicate title is necessary in several situations, including:
- Lost Titles: If you misplaced your vehicle title, a replacement is required.
- Stolen Titles:If someone steals your title, replacing it ensures your ownership is legally documented.
- Damaged or Illegible Titles: If your title is torn, water-damaged, or unreadable, you need a new one.
- Name or Address Change:If your personal details have changed and need to be updated, a duplicate title may be required.
Without a valid title, selling or transferring your vehicle becomes difficult. Avoid the stress — let Auto Tags & Titles of South Florida handle the process for you.
