Texas title, registration and plates

Ownership and title
Complete the Texas title assignment and applicable title-transfer paperwork; check the process with TxDMV or the county tax office.
Missing title
For a lost Texas title, request a certified copy using VTR-34. A bonded-title process is for certain ownership-document problems, not the default replacement for every lost title. A recycler-only exception needs its own eligibility and documentation check.
Lienholder
If a lien is recorded, contact the lienholder about the title and a lien release. A sale or scrap pickup does not erase an outstanding loan.
License plates
Remove your plates and registration sticker; ask TxDMV about an eligible plate transfer.
Registration and sale records
File a Vehicle Transfer Notification with TxDMV and keep the receipt and signed sale documents. This updates the record; it is not a blanket guarantee against liability.
