Choose the county office that already has the vehicle record

Hawaii title and registration work runs through county offices. Use the county that issued the current record or will handle the transfer.

What to bring

  • duplicate-title request for the Hawaii title record
  • owner identity details and title or vehicle information
  • lienholder information when the Hawaii title still shows a lien
  • payment for Hawaii duplicate-title processing

Likely next steps

  1. Use Hawaii's duplicate-title workflow before attempting a sale, transfer, or correction that depends on the title record.
  2. Confirm the titled owner, lien status, and filing path before submitting the request.
  3. Wait for the replacement title before relying on it for later ownership work.
