No, the car title and the registration document are not the same. The car title is a legal document that proves ownership of the vehicle, while the registration document is a form of identification for the vehicle and shows that it has been registered with the state's Department of Motor Vehicles.

If parents buy car and there is a loan can car driven by son have hs name on registration and title?

This question is extremely confusing. If the parents buy themselves a car, the parents name will be on their registration and title. If the parents lease a car for their son, the son's name will not be on the title. The company that leases the car will retain title and will take the depreciation in order to receive the depreciation under Federal Income Tax Law. How the registration reads will vary according to state law. However, there will be some type of legal document showing the son is entitled to drive the car legally.

No. the registration is something you have to do with the DMV. The Title is normally handed over and put in your name showing ownership of the vehicle.

You will also need to plate the vehicle with your own plates and pay the registration and taxes on the car. It is legally required within 30 days of the new purchase to register your car.
