Special situation
Get a duplicate title in New Jersey
Use this path when the New Jersey title is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed and you need a replacement before sale, transfer, or correction work.
What to gather first
- duplicate title request through New Jersey MVC
- details about the lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed title
- lienholder or leasing-company involvement when the title is not held directly by the owner
- duplicate-title fee payment
Likely next steps
- Use New Jersey's duplicate-title process before trying to transfer or correct the title.
- Confirm whether a lienholder or leasing company must request the replacement title.
- Complete the MVC duplicate-title process and fee payment before relying on the replacement title for later transactions.
