To receive a vehicle title in Michigan, you are required to visit an SOS office location and present the vehicle\u2019s current title certificate and payment for all applicable vehicle title fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All vehicle owners listed on the vehicle\u2019s title must be present unless a vehicle owner completes an Appointment of Agent Form (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/tr-128_16190_7.pdf\">Form TR-128<\/a>). This form designates another person to sign the vehicle\u2019s title on the owner\u2019s behalf. If you have a lien on your vehicle, and the lender has the vehicle\u2019s title, you can use your out-of-state registration or other proof of vehicle title to register and title your vehicle in Michigan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transferring-a-vehicle-title-when-buying-or-selling-a-vehicle-in-michigan\"><a><\/a>Transferring a Vehicle Title When Buying or Selling a Vehicle in Michigan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the state of Michigan, when there is a change of ownership of a vehicle, a vehicle title transfer must take place. This vehicle title transfer also applies to ownership changes due to the purchase and sale of a vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transferring-the-title-of-a-vehicle-purchased-from-a-dealer\"><a><\/a>Transferring the Title of a Vehicle Purchased From a Dealer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After purchasing a vehicle from a dealer in Michigan, the dealer usually handles the vehicle titling and registration process on your behalf.

The seller is responsible for completing the title assignment and signing the vehicle title. The vehicle\u2019s seller is also responsible for providing the odometer disclosure statement.

If not, you have 15 days after the transaction to complete the vehicle title transfer on your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that you are allowed to drive the vehicle without a license plate in the immediate 3 days of the purchase date of the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transferring-a-vehicle-s-title-after-selling-a-vehicle\"><a><\/a>Transferring a Vehicle\u2019s Title After Selling a Vehicle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you sell your vehicle, it\u2019s the vehicle buyer\u2019s responsibility to complete the vehicle title transfer process. As the seller of the vehicle, it is your responsibility to complete the title assignment on the current vehicle title certificate, and give it to the vehicle buyer. You need to provide specific information on the vehicle title certificate, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Mileage<\/li><li>Sale date<\/li><li>Selling price<\/li><li>Signatures of all vehicle owners listed on the vehicle\u2019s title<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can, you should visit your local SOS office with the vehicle\u2019s buyer to complete the MI vehicle title transfer. If you can\u2019t make this trip, make sure you keep a record of sale, which can include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A clear photocopy of the assigned vehicle title certificate<\/li><li>A document or form that includes the following information:<ul><li>Year and make of the vehicle<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Vehicle identification number (VIN)<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>The vehicle buyer\u2019s name, address, driver\u2019s license number, and signature<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the sale of the vehicle is complete, you need to remove the license plates and keep them. Do not give the license plates off the vehicle to the new vehicle owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-instant-vehicle-title-issuance-in-michigan\"><a><\/a>Instant Vehicle Title Issuance in Michigan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need your vehicle title sooner than you would receive from the MI SOS in the mail or otherwise, you may be able to use the SOS\u2019s instant vehicle title service, which is available at some MI SOS branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind, only vehicle owners can apply for an instant vehicle title. Agents and representatives of the vehicle owner are not able to use this service. Most vehicles that are registered in Michigan are eligible for an instant vehicle title. The cost of an instant vehicle title is $20. If you need to add or remove a vehicle lien, the fee is $21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-transfer-a-car-title-when-the-owner-is-deceased\"><a><\/a>How to Transfer a Car Title When the Owner is Deceased?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan on gifting, keeping, or selling a vehicle and the owner is deceased, you must be a beneficiary of the individual\u2019s estate. If you are the beneficiary, joint-owner, or surviving spouse of the deceased individual\u2019s estate, you have the legal authority to transfer the vehicle\u2019s title to someone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a vehicle owner passes away, the vehicle title transfer process of a deceased person varies depending on if the vehicle was in the individual\u2019s name as a descendant or joint ownership. When the vehicle\u2019s title is solely in the descendant\u2019s name, you need to know if the estate of the individual is being probated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Probate proves the last will and testament is legitimate, and it involves administering the estate of the individual who passed away. Once this step takes place, the Probate Court will determine how to proceed with the individual\u2019s belongings based on their will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the vehicle is part of a probated estate, you need to follow these steps in order to successfully transfer the vehicle title of a deceased person:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-contact-an-attorney-or-contact-probate-court\">Contact an Attorney or Contact Probate Court<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The title of a vehicle can\u2019t be transferred until the probate process is completed. The executor or administrator of the deceased needs to contact an attorney or Probate Court as soon as possible to learn how to continue with the probate process. When the probate process is completed, the heir will receive the vehicle, unless the executor was given the vehicle. At this time, the executor can sell the vehicle if they choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-gather-the-necessary-documentation\">Gather the Necessary Documentation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the state of Michigan, you are required to submit these documents to transfer the title of a vehicle when its owner is deceased:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Certificate of the vehicle title<\/li><li>Order from Probate Court to transfer the vehicle<\/li><li>Death certificate<\/li><li>Odometer disclosure statement<\/li><li>Transfer fee<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-visit-the-title-office\">Visit the Title Office<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Administrators of the deceased individual\u2019s estate and the beneficiary of the vehicle can visit their local MI title office with the above-listed documents to initiate the MI vehicle title transfer process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-transfer-a-vehicle-title-without-probate\"><a><\/a>How to Transfer a Vehicle Title Without Probate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To successfully transfer a vehicle\u2019s title without probate in Michigan, the deceased individual\u2019s property must not exceed a certain amount and a certain amount of time needs to have passed since the individual passed away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When there is no probate involved, the spouse, administrator, joint-owner, or beneficiary may be able to submit the death certificate and vehicle title to their local MI title office, and have the vehicle title retitled. Court orders and attorneys are not required for this scenario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inherited-vehicles\"><a><\/a>Inherited Vehicles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When there is no probate, inheritance of a vehicle is determined by the first listed survivor(s) in the order listed as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Spouse<\/li><li>Children (split equally)<\/li><li>Parents<\/li><li>Siblings (split equally)<\/li><li>Closest next-of-kin<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The individual inheriting the vehicle can choose to title the vehicle or assign the vehicle title to a new owner. If the vehicle is subject to probate, the administrator or executive of the estate will be responsible for assigning the vehicle title to a new owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your situation differs from the situation above, contact the Michigan SOS at (888) 767-6424 for information on how to title the inherited vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transferring-a-title-after-a-lease-buyout\"><a><\/a>Transferring a Title After a Lease Buyout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Paying off a vehicle loan is certainly something to celebrate, and it\u2019s a reason to retitle your vehicle. To release a vehicle lien, the lender must either sign the vehicle title certificate or provide you with a lien termination statement. If you still have a lien on your vehicle, the vehicle\u2019s title will reflect the lien on your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-transfer-ownership-of-a-vehicle-without-a-title-in-michigan\"><a><\/a>How to Transfer Ownership of a Vehicle Without a Title in Michigan?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to drive a vehicle legally in Michigan, you must have a title to register a vehicle. If you can get in touch with the previous vehicle owner, you can ask them to file a duplicate vehicle title, (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/sos\/Duplicate_Title_App_Out_of_State_Res_Svcs_387743_7.pdf\">Form TR-11L<\/a>). If you can\u2019t get in touch with the vehicle\u2019s previous owner, you may have to go to probate or petition the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-i-gift-a-car-to-a-family-member\"><a><\/a>Can I Gift a Car to a Family Member?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can gift a vehicle to a family member in Michigan, but in order to do so, there are certain steps you need to follow. A Michigan vehicle title transfer for a gifted vehicle is the same process as the Michigan vehicle title transfer for a vehicle purchased through a private party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you received a vehicle as a gift, or a vehicle was sold to you by a qualifying relative, you are exempt from paying sales or use tax in MI. Qualifying family members include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Spouses<\/li><li>Parents (including stepparents and in-laws)<\/li><li>Siblings (including step-siblings and in-laws)<\/li><li>Children (including stepchildren and in-laws)<\/li><li>Grandparents (including in-laws)<\/li><li>Grandchildren (including in-laws)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In the state of Michigan, you are not required to provide proof of a relationship when you apply for a vehicle title transfer. However, you can be asked to prove the relationship at any time by the Michigan Department of Treasury. If your relationship claim is found to be fraudulent, you will be required to pay costly fines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-transferring-a-vehicle-title-when-you-have-an-out-of-state-title\"><a><\/a>Transferring a Vehicle Title When You Have an Out-of-State Title<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you need to transfer an out-of-state vehicle title to a Michigan title, you must present different documents. These documents include but are not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The out-of-state vehicle title<\/li><li>Proof of a valid no-fault Michigan vehicle insurance policy<\/li><li>Proof of identity<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to present these documents at your local SOS branch office. If there are multiple vehicle owners listed on the out-of-state vehicle title, all vehicle owners are required to appear at the SOS branch office when the application for a Michigan vehicle title is made. If one of the vehicle owners can\u2019t attend, an Appointment of Agent Form (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/tr-128_16190_7.pdf\">Form TR-128<\/a>) must be presented. This form allows another vehicle owner to sign on the absent vehicle owner\u2019s behalf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an out-of-state vehicle title that is being held by a lien holder, you can take your out-of-state vehicle registration (can be recently expired), or proof of the out-of-state vehicle title to any SOS branch office with proof of a valid Michigan no-fault vehicle insurance policy for the vehicle. You will be issued a \u201cforeign ownership &#8211; registration only\u201d registration for the vehicle. This type of vehicle registration allows the State of Michigan to issue license plates without converting the out-of-state vehicle title to a Michigan vehicle title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-requesting-a-duplicate-vehicle-title-in-michigan\"><a><\/a>Requesting a Duplicate Vehicle Title in Michigan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have lost or damaged your vehicle title, you can apply for a duplicate vehicle title online or in person at your local SOS branch office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-requesting-a-duplicate-vehicle-title-in-michigan-online\"><a><\/a>Requesting a Duplicate Vehicle Title In Michigan Online<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are requesting a duplicate vehicle title online, you need to visit the Secretary of State online services page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/sos\/0,4670,7-127-96435_98971_96436_96112---,00.html\">here<\/a>.

You need to complete an Appointment of Agent (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/documents\/tr-128_16190_7.pdf\">Form TR-128<\/a>) and provide a photocopy of your driver\u2019s license or state ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-much-does-a-title-transfer-cost-in-michigan\"><a><\/a>How Much Does a Title Transfer Cost in Michigan?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can expect to pay different fees that are associated with a vehicle title transfer in Michigan.

You may be required to complete a bill of sale that discloses information regarding the vehicle, such as its color, make, model, and year. Make sure you also include the vehicle\u2019s VIN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re choosing to sell a vehicle rather than gift it to someone, you need to be sure you add sales tax to the vehicle\u2019s price. You also need to provide an odometer reading in the \u201ctransfer of title by seller\u201d section of the Michigan vehicle title. The recipient of the vehicle is required to sign the vehicle title in the provided spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional documentation may be required, such as a valid MI vehicle insurance policy that meets or exceeds the current coverage limits set by the state of Michigan. You may also be required to present a valid government-issued photo ID. However, if you don\u2019t have one, a foreign passport is an acceptable proof of identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-my-car-title-was-signed-but-never-transferred-what-do-i-do\"><a><\/a>My Car Title Was Signed But Never Transferred.
