A request starts review. It does not complete a DMV transaction or guarantee eligibility.
The right process for your title.
A replacement title request depends on the DMV ownership record and whether a lienholder is listed. Tell us if you are also buying, selling, or transferring the vehicle so we can help identify the right request.
What to have ready
- License plate number and VIN
- Registered owner information
- Identification and current address
- Lienholder information, if applicable
Missing something? Contact our team before proceeding. The exact requirements depend on your request.
Understand your fees
Ask for a quote based on your vehicle and the assistance requested. Government charges, applicable taxes or penalties, our service fee, and any applicable $7 BPA fee are separate items.
For eligible items sent by our office: free local pickup, $6 standard shipping, or $35 overnight shipping. Shipping begins after processing and does not speed up DMV review.

Common questions
Is a duplicate title the same as a title transfer?
No. A replacement concerns a missing or damaged title. Changing ownership may require a transfer and additional documents. Let us know what you are trying to do.
What if I do not know which documents I need?
Start by telling us what you are trying to do and what paperwork you have. We’ll help identify the next step.
How long will my request take?
Timing depends on the service, complete documents, and any agency requirements. Contact our team for guidance specific to your request.
Are you the California DMV?
No. Auto Express Tags is an independent registration service. Services are also available directly from the California DMV without our additional service charges.
