Steps to Follow
Virginia's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) can replace just about every vehicle-related document, including misplaced titles.
The DMV provides three convenient options: phone, online, or in person.
Phone
To apply for a duplicate title by phone, dial (888) 337-4782. Have your driver's license and registration certificate handy. You'll be asked to provide identification numbers.
When applying by phone, you must pay the $5 replacement title fee with a credit card.
Online
To apply online, provide your customer number (located on your driver's license} or ID card)}, date of birth, and pin number.
There's a $5 replacement fee, payable by credit card.
In Person
Visit any customer service center. Be sure to bring your registration certificate and either your license or photo ID. Complete an Application for Supplemental and Transfer Liens or Replacement and Substitute Titles. Cost: $5
Miscellaneous Stuff
- If your title has a lien, the replacement title will be sent to the lienholder. Otherwise, it will be given to you.
- A replacement title invalidates the original title.
