Appointments are required for title transfers and vehicles coming from other states. Dealers, businesses, and individuals with multiple titles will need to contact the office before scheduling appointments. You must have the original title in your possession in order to schedule a title appointment. If you have a lien or a leased vehicle and do not have your title, do not schedule an appointment. You will need to submit this form to have our office request your title. If your out of state tag is expiring within the next 5 days or has been expired for 30 days or less, you can schedule a title appointment and we will issue you a temporary tag. We must have requested your title before the temporary tag can be issued, and have proof of your expiration date, such as your out of state registration. If you prefer to drop off or mail in your title work for processing, you will need to complete this packet and include your original title.To register your vehicle in Florida we will need the following:




state of florida definition of auto titles



If the abandoned vehicle has no market value, it may be disposed of after receiving two (2) written statements from licensed automobile dealers as to the worthlessness of such vehicle and proper notification as described above to the owner and lienholders.


All leased vehicles that do not give the lessee the right of purchase upon performance of the conditions stated in the agreement or the immediate right of possession, will be titles in the same name of the lessor. If the lessor has given a security interest in the vehicle to a Bank, Financial Company, etc., said Bank or Finance Company will be recorded as first lienholder. This type lease will hereafter to as a Net Lease.


Motor Vehicles owned by out-of-state owners that are domiciled or garaged in this State and are required to purchase a Mississippi Road and Bridge Privilege License are to be titles under Title Law. The address shown on the application for title must be the Mississippi address where garaged or domiciled.


In the event an insured motor vehicle becomes a total loss, as a result of an accident, and the Insurance Company becomes the owner of the motor vehicle and subsequently sells this vehicle to a salvage or junk dealer, the vehicle is considered as salvage and ceases to be a Motor Vehicle. The original title should be forwarded by the owner, properly filled out and signed, to the State Tax Commission along with the vehicle identification plate. If, on the other hand the vehicle is to be repaired, it would be brought within the definition of a motor vehicle as contained within the Motor Vehicle Title Act and when the motor vehicle status has reached state of repair, the previous title must be attached to application for certificate of title and properly assigned to new owner. This, of course, would not be the Insurance Company because it would have surrendered all claims to said vehicle.


You may be required to provide additional documentation, such as proof of a valid FL auto insurance policy that meet or exceed the coverage limits specified by Florida state law. You also need a valid government-issued photo ID. A foreign passport will suffice as an acceptable proof of identification.


To replace a lost title, check out this resource from Finance and Insurance Tools. It provides the links to state applications for replacement titles plus the cost. According to the F&I, the cost will range from $2 to 95, depending on the state where you live.


Awareness of the different types of vehicle titles among states puts you in a strong position to understand how title washing happens, discover title washing, and avoid over-valuing salvaged or rebuilt vehicles.


A rebuilt title indicates someone extensively repaired a vehicle that an insurance company gave a salvage title. It should come as no surprise that states handle rebuilt titles differently. Some states specify that mechanics or new owners must meet certain standards and get the vehicle inspected before the state issues a rebuilt title.


A vehicle with a salvage title is currently damaged, not operable, or unsafe to drive. Some states make it illegal to drive these cars and trucks on public roads, and vehicle owners often have a tough time insuring them. Owners can insure and drive vehicles with rebuilt titles, but these cars are often unreliable, unsafe, and need more work.


As of 2019, vehicles that were last registered in a state outside of Florida are not eligible for a bonded title. If your vehicle was last registered outside of Florida, please contact the DMV to learn what other options you have to get your vehicle registered. This bond cannot be canceled or refunded, so please verify with your local DMV before you purchase a lost title bond. Florida does not offer the option to get bonded titles for trailers, boats or jet skies.


A salvage pool is an entity that acquires junk and salvage automobiles from a variety of parties and consolidates them for resale at a common point of sale. Both the Department of Justice and the state and local law-enforcement community are concerned that a significant number of these junk and salvage automobiles purchased from salvage pools have their VINs or titles used to create cloned vehicles, or otherwise make stolen vehicles appear legitimate. Such entities must report all salvage or junk vehicles they obtain, including vehicles from or on behalf of insurance carriers, that can reasonably be assumed to be total loss vehicles. 041b061a72
