Anything that is driven (cars, trucks, RV's, motorcycles, mopeds, motorized bicycles) or anything that is pulled (RT's, pop-ups, 5th wheels, trailers of all kinds and sizes) on the roads is titled and licensed.
How do I apply for a duplicate or lost vehicle title?
A $65 fee and a Duplicate Title application must be submitted stating the reason for the duplicate title request. The original title must have been lost, stolen or mutilated. The application should indicate the exact vehicle identification number and the last license plate number.

To remove a name due to a deceased owner, a certified copy of the death certificate must be submitted. If the estate is being probated, a certified copy of letters of administration or court order must be submitted with the application. More information concerning Corrected Titles and the Deceased.
