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
