What to bring

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

Likely next steps

  1. Use Montana'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.
