Every state follows pretty much the same requirements for getting a replacement title but the procedures for running the gauntlet are different. A vehicle title (or a car title) is a legal form, establishing a person or business as the legal owner of a vehicle. Vehicle titles in Alabama are issued by the Alabaman Motor Vehicles Division.

The certificate of title normally specifies:

 

1. Identifying information about the vehicle, normally at minimum its vehicle identification number, make, and year of manufacture.
2. Technical information about the vehicle to define its taxation regime, such as its gross vehicle weight and motive power.
3. The name and address of the purchaser or "registered owner" who would normally possess and use it.
4. If money is owed on the vehicle, the name of the lien holder or "legal owner" to whom this money is owed.

 

When a vehicle is financed, the certificate of title is normally held by the lender, who must release it to the purchaser once the balance is paid off. When a car is sold from one owner to another, the title must be transferred to the new owner. This is achieved by requesting approval by the Pennsylvania MVD.

Below is a summary only for the state of Alabama, please contact your local DMV for specifics if more information is required.

Some states issue titles, some don't! What?! Well, according to the manufacture year you may need a Registration instead. Note: Vehicles owned by the government may be treated differently.
