As your proof of legal ownership, your vehicle title is a very important document. You should keep your vehicle registration card in your car's glove compartment, but your title should be kept in a safe deposit box or other location.
You will need the title when you want to sell your vehicle (you must complete a title transfer, after all); providing the buyer with a bill of sale or vehicle history report is not sufficient.
Don't forget to provide your vehicle odometer mileage reading and any current lien information; the duplicate title must be sent to the lienholder if you have an auto loan that has not yet been repaid.
You will be expected to pay a $15 fee in order to receive a replacement for your lost title.
