No title — What You Need to Know

The seller does not have the original title, either because it is lost, the vehicle is old and was never titled, or title records are incomplete. A workaround process is required to transfer legal ownership.

If no title ever existed, the buyer will likely need a bonded title: a surety bond valued at 1.5× the vehicle's appraised value that protects against future ownership disputes. The bond period is typically 3 years after which a clean title is issued.

Buyer guidance
