Maryland Transfer Car Title
Do you need to transfer your car title in Maryland? If an MD car title is currently in your name, but should be amended, learn more about the process and get started by following the steps below.
1: Get Started with Online Application Assistance
Application assistance services can simplify the process for many MVA related services for a fee, including: renewing your license, applying for a license, registering a vehicle, replacing your license, changing your address and more. In addition to assistance in preparing official forms, the value added services and products you will receive include a comprehensive Easy Guide™ containing information relevant to your service needs; 30 days of both emergency Roadside Assistance and the Repair Assist consultation service from Road America. Other benefits include an ongoing monthly newsletter and a quarterly magazine covering important updates that affect drivers, important safety tips, trends, legislative updates and ways to save money on vehicle-related services.
2: By mail
Some drivers prefer to handle the renewal process by mail, rather than taking advantage of assistance services, visiting the MVA in person, or via available online services. Service by mail is available with limitations. Read below for additional details or visit your local MVA.
3: Via a MVA office
If your specific needs require an in-person visit, most, if not all, driver license services can be handled at your local MVA office. Varying MVA offices sometimes supply different types of services so you will need to check before your visit to make sure the MVA closest to you provides the service you require. In addition, you can call to see if your MVA allows you to make a personal appointment.
Maryland Car Title Transfers
Are you planning on selling your car? If so, you will need to notify the MD MVA about your Maryland car title transfer. In order to expedite this process, you will need to provide completed VR-005, which is an Application for Certificate of Car Title in Maryland. You should print out this form, complete it and bring it to your local MVA branch. However, if you plan to gift your vehicle to its new owner in Maryland, you can complete Form VR-103, Application for Gift Certification. Be sure to provide proof of identity as well when completing the MD car title transfer process, and review the fees associated, so you are prepared when you visit the MD DMV.
