SF 300: Relating to replacement certificates of title for vehicles, providing fees, and including retroactive applicability provisions

What it does

Under current law, if a vehicle’s certificate of title is lost or destroyed, the owner or lienholder is required to apply for a replacement copy of the original certificate of title. The owner or lienholder of a motor vehicle may also apply for a replacement copy of the original certificate of title upon surrender of the original certificate of title with the application. Some Code references to a “replacement copy of the original certificate of title” instead use “certified copies” or “replacement certificate of title”.
