The Electronic Lien and Title (ELT) program enables the DMV and lending institutions (lienholders) to exchange vehicle and title information electronically. Lienholder participation is mandatory! The DMV no longer processes non-ELT titles from dealers or financial institutions.
Never got your original Title? If you never received your original title, you will need to complete a Lost Title Affidavit (Form VP-206). This form also says that you will surrender the original title if you find it.
You may submit the title at a DMV office or mail it to us to have the lienholder removed and obtain a "clear" title. It does not matter whether the title was issued in a different state as long as the vehicle is registered in Nevada.
If your vehicle was last titled in Nevada and there are no liens, we may request a duplicated title for you. Your title will be mailed in approximately 6 weeks. If your vehicle is titled in another state, you must obtain a duplicate from that state.
Under federal law, the servicer must generally send you a payoff statement within seven business days of your request, subject to a few exceptions. (12 C.F.R. § 1026.36.)
How do I request a payoff letter? To get a payoff letter, ask your lender for an official payoff statement. Call or write to customer service or make the request online. While logged into your account, look for options to request or calculate a payoff amount, and provide details such as your desired payoff date.

You will not be able to register or to apply for a new title in Nevada unfortunately without the original title. The seller of the car should not have sold the car to you without signing and turning over the original Certificate of Title to you.
