The document that applies\nhere is a car title. A simple transfer of title is all that must take place\nwhen selling a vehicle to another person, legally. If you are selling your car,\nyou would sign the title over to the buyer, who then becomes the new owner.\nAfter the new owner signs the title, they must visit their DMV to officially\nregister the car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brand New Vehicles<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are selling a vehicle that never had a previous owner\nbefore you, you might be able to use the Manufacturer\u2019s Certificate of Origin,\nalso known as a Manufacturer\u2019s Statement of Origin (MSO), to prove ownership of\nthe vehicle when you do not have a car title. This document is given to new car\nbuyers at the dealership. They are official documents that can be used at a DMV\nto prove ownership of a car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Documents That Might Be Accepted<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on various factors, such as state laws and insurance regulations, there might be additional documents that can be used to prove ownership of a motorized vehicle. These may or may not include <strong>1)<\/strong> letter of release from lien-holder, <strong>2)<\/strong> a bill of sale, or <strong>3)<\/strong> the registration certificate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Did You Lose Your Car Title?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) will allow car owners to replace a lost, faulty, or stolen car title if they can meet all the replacement requirements. This new title will have \u201cDUPLICATE\u201d printed on its face to show that is it not the original document, but it will work just the same. Once a duplicate title is issued, the original one is no longer valid.
