"*" indicates required fields

Request a Title Held by a Lienholder

Use this form if you are transferring your title and registration to Florida and the title is held by a Lienholder. Please only use this form if you have a residential address in Escambia County, Florida.
This choice will determine how your application is tracked and which documents and instructions are provided to you.

Vehicle Information

Enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Usually 17 characters long, but could be as few as 9 characters depending on the age of the vehicle. Your VIN can usually be located on your current registration, loan documents, bill of sale, dashboard of your vehicle, or title.
Current Titled State*
Indicate state where vehicle is currently titled. The following states allow the owner to hold the title even if there is a lien: KY, MD, MI OPTIONAL, MN, MO, MT, NJ, NY, OK, WI, WY OPTIONAL This means that if you are from one of these states, you most likely possess your title.

A “pickup” is defined as a truck weighing less than 5,000 pounds when unburdened. If your truck weighs more than 5,000 pounds, choose “truck” from the list below. If you are unsure, make your best guess. This information can be corrected later during the titling process.
Choose your lienholder from the list below. A lienholder is usually a bank or financial institution who holds an interest in your vehicle and to whom you are making payments.
If your lienholder was not listed, type the name of the bank, financial institution, or individual below.
The loan number is helpful in ensuring that your lienholder locates the correct vehicle record. Your loan number may be located on your billing statement, original loan documents from time of purchase, or by contacting your lienholder.
