Separate Title Notice For Free

If you have a court or other legal document stating that you are (now) the sole owner of the vehicle, you can use that to have a new title issued in your name without your ex's involvement. The same is true if the vehicle is titled only in your ex's name and you were awarded ownership.

If the title is held electronically, the seller and buyer must visit a motor vehicle service center to complete a secure title reassignment (HSMV 82994 or 82092) and disclose the odometer reading. The buyer and seller must both be present and provide photo identification.

Correct an error on registration or title If we made an error on your document, use the Ask DMV a Question service to request a correction. We may be able to correct it without you coming a DMV office. There is no fee for a correction.

Title transfers must take place within 30 days of the date of sale, otherwise a late fee will be assessed. Dual ownership requires both parties to be present unless a notarized power of attorney is provided. Social Security numbers for all parties are required.

If the buyer does not sign the title and mail or give it to DVS, then the seller's name stays on the title of the car. If the buyer doesn't transfer the title within 10 days, the car's registration is suspended. What should I do if I sold a car but didn't report the sale? You should report the sale to DVS immediately.

Online FLHSMV Title Transfer The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles offers online services. Your title can be requested online for an additional fee of $2.50. After requesting it and paying the fees, the title will be mailed to your address within 10 days.

Simply have the other person sign the back of the title over to you. You can do this in person or via mail. If you are keeping the title and removing another name, visit your local DMV, you'll need to get a new title with new tags.
