Verification of Mailing Address |
|
|
Note: You cannot use this transaction if the address on the DMV title certificate and vehicle/boat registration records does not match your current mailing address. The DMV sends your duplicate title certificate to the address listed on the DMV registration and title certificate records. The US Postal Service (USPS) can have your new address and an order to forward mail, but there is no guarantee that the USPS will forward your duplicate title certificate. If your address has changed, you must apply for a duplicate title certificate at a local DMV office or by mail. |
|
Current ZIP Code: Enter 5 digits. The address must be in the US.
|
Current ZIP Code. Enter the ZIP code of your current mailing address. The DMV compares this ZIP Code with the zip code that is listed on your DMV vehicle/boat record at the time of this order.
You cannot order a duplicate title certificate online if:
- the ZIP Code that you enter does not match the ZIP Code on your DMV vehicle/boat record, or
- you have the same ZIP Code, but your address changed, or
- you do not have a US ZIP Code.
You cannot:
- change your address during the online order, or
- change your address after the online order and then receive your document at the new address, or
- order a duplicate title certificate online and then request that the DMV mail your document to a different address.
