Replacing a Lost Title in North Dakota
Don't sweat it. Lost titles happen. The efficiency with which North Dakota's Department of Transportation (NDDOT) handles and processes lost titles is high evidence of this.
Ordering a Duplicate Title
It's in your best interest to order a duplicate title. You'll need it in case you decide to sell or transfer ownership of your titled vehicle.
To apply you must visit any motor vehicle office where you'll be asked to:
- Provide your registration certificate.
- Pay a $5 fee.
Or, if you're not feeling social, you can mail the application along with a check for $5 to:
- North Dakota Department of Transportation
- Motor Vehicle Division
- 608 E. Boulevard Ave.
- Bismarck, ND 58505-0780
NDDOT will mail your duplicate title within two weeks.
The duplicate will contain the line "This is a duplicate certificate and be subject to the rights of a person under the original certificate." Should you find your original title after the duplicate has been issued you will need to forfeit the original to NDDOT.
