The previous owner goes to the department of motor vehicles and fills out some paperwork. Then he pays a fee. You go with him and sign the paperwork for a new title, and pay a fee. If he had not lost the original title, he would not need to go to the department, fill out the paperwork, and pay the lost title fee.
The original owner must go to the DMV to get a duplicate. In some states the owner can sign an application form for a duplicate and anyone can take it to the DMV but the title will still be issued to the original owner.

If car title notarized but you lost it before you got to have it transferred to your name do you need the original car owner to get another copy and have it notarized again?
Yes, if you lost the notarized car title, you typically need the original owner to request a duplicate title from the DMV or relevant authority, as they are the legal owner of record. The original owner may need to sign the application for the duplicate title, and it will likely need to be notarized again. Check with your local DMV for specific requirements and procedures.

You have to get a bill of sale from the original title holder stating that you are now the legal owner of the vehicle.

See your local city hall or DMV for more information.

Lost Vehicle TitleGenerally you can apply for a lost title through your state Department of Motor Vehciels or Department of Licensing. It may make it easier if the previous owner goes with you (assuming he is the registered owner). States normally require that a previous owner notify them that a vehicle has been sold. In addition: You will have to submit an application for a lost title/damaged title. I believe only the registered owner of the vehicle from when it was title originally can obtain a replacement.In Ca the lost/not received/transfer form is available at DMV thiis is used for sale on auto where seller still has the title and never transfereed to themselves yet so has no "title" so you include additional title (form is a blank need to fill out all info on vehicle , seller, and buyer turn in with the other title(the one your seller never turned in for themselves, or you can use the lost/not received/transfer form if the other has been lost
If you have a vehicle title and it was signed in wrong spot by the seller will the DMV still take it?
It depends on the DMV. Some will help you with this dilemna, and some will tell you to scrap the car, or give it back to the last owner. I would say, have the previous owner apply for a lost title, less than $20.00 in Minnesota, and start over. You may be able to fix this, if you bring the previous owner to the DMV with you to explain what happened. The lost title deal is best, and split the cost with them.

How do you get the title for a vehicle?
The previous owner will have the title, if he or she owns it free and clear. Otherwise, the bank or loan agency has possession of the title until the balance owed to them has been paid off, and will show them as leinholder. Never ever purchase a vehicle without obtaining the title from the previous owner(s). It is their responsibility to obtain this FOR you, not the other way around. If you purchased and are restoring a non-running vehicle , just take the recept with a note from the owner to Motor vehicles and file for a lost title. This often happens with an estate purchase.
