Illinois title rules for selling without a title
- Illinois expects a title for the sale. If yours is lost, request a duplicate through Illinois Secretary of State (VSD-190 (Title Application) / VSD-333 (Junk Certificate)) before pickup.
- Illinois uses a bonded (surety) title when the chain of ownership is broken: you post a surety bond — typically 1.5× the vehicle's appraised value — and the Illinois Secretary of State issues a title you can sign over.
- Complete the seller's section of the title and file a notice of sale with the Illinois Secretary of State.
- Remove your plates — Illinois plates stay with the owner and are transferable.
