But first, let’s answer a few key questions:
Why is a Certificate of Title Important?
Because a title is prime proof of ownership, without it, a vehicle cannot be bought, sold, gifted, inherited, transferred, or altered. Without it, an owner cannot prove that the vehicle belongs to them. It is an integral document to vehicle ownership and should be kept safe, in good condition, and available.
What is a defaced or damaged title?
A damaged or defaced title refers to when a title is no longer legible and therefore is rendered not usable by the MVA. This includes stains, tears, aging, smudges, cross-outs, alterations, and corrections. All of these are generally considered cause to reject a title and require a duplicate or replacement to be obtained. Only then can all types of transfers take place.
Do I have to visit the MVA to get a replacement title?
Nope. You can order a Maryland replacement title online from the convenience of just about anywhere. If you have a WiFi-enabled device and the pertinent info, you’re already on your way to getting your replacement title.
