Special situation
Correct a title record in Iowa
Use this path when an Iowa title record has the wrong owner, lien, or vehicle detail and needs a formal correction before you rely on it.
What to gather first
- current title or title-record details
- supporting correction documents
- county treasurer title-correction materials
Likely next steps
- Identify the exact title-record issue and gather the documents that prove the correction before filing with the county treasurer.
- Use Iowa's title workflow instead of assuming a renewal or transfer will fix the title record.
- Complete the correction before relying on the title for sale, transfer, or registration work.
