DAMAGE DISCLOSURE - must be completed for vehicles, motorcycles and trailers
I certify that, to the best of my knowledge, this vehicle, motorcycle or trailer has been or has not been wrecked, destroyed or damaged to such
an extent that the total estimate, or actual cost, of parts and labor to rebuild or reconstruct the vehicle to the condition it was in before an accident,
and for legal operation on the road or highways, is more than 75% of the retail value of the vehicle at the time of loss. (Checking the “has been
” box
means the vehicle must have an anti-theft examination before being registered, and that the title issued will have the statement “Rebuilt Salvage:
NY” on it if the proof of ownership is a New York State title. If the proof of ownership is an out-of-state title, it will show that state’s abbreviation.)
THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO APPLY FOR A CERTIFICATE OF TITLE.
1. APPLICATION (FORM MV-82TON) - After completing appropriate sections as outlined on top of page 1, please make sure you sign the owner
certification in Section 6 and the dealer signs Section 7or 8, if applicable.
2. PROOF OF OWNERSHIP - If purchased new, the proof of ownership is a Manufacturer’s Statement or Certificate of Origin. If purchased used, the
proof of ownership is usually a certificate of title (or a transferable registration and bill of sale if from a state that does not require a title). For vehicles,
motorcycles, and trailers sold by a New York State dealer, a Certificate of Sale (Form MV-50) is also required. For boats sold by a dealer, a bill of sale
from the dealer must accompany the proof of ownership. If you have other proof of ownership, please contact the Title Bureau to find out if it is acceptable.
3. PROOF OF NAME AND DATE OF BIRTH - Only proofs of name that contain the owner’s signature will be accepted. For example: a copy of a photo
driver license, a military photo ID card, or a credit card. Proof of date of birth is a copy of a photo driver license, a birth certificate, or military separation
papers (DD-214). A corporation must provide proof of incorporation.
4. SALES TAX CLEARANCE - Proof that you paid or are exempt from paying sales tax is needed. The following are acceptable proofs of sales tax clearance:
Form MV-50 (Certificate of Sale) - for vehicles, motorcycles, and trailers purchased from a New York State-registered dealer.
Form FS-6T (Sales Tax Clearance Receipt) - for vehicles, motorcycles, trailers and boats purchased from an out-of-state dealer, or through a sale
that does not involve a dealer. Form FS-6T may be obtained at any Motor Vehicles office by paying sales tax or by showing that you are tax exempt.
A bill of sale - for boats purchased from a New York State-registered boat dealer. The bill of sale must indicate that tax was paid, or that the
purchaser is exempt from sales tax.
Signed Manufactured Home Dealer Certification (Section 8) - for manufactured homes purchased from a dealer authorized to collect New York State
and local sales tax. The Manufactured Home Dealer Certification below must be completed by the dealer. PLEASE NOTE: Sales tax clearance is
only required for manufactured homes purchased as NEW.
5. FILING LIENS - Section 4 on page 1 can only be used by a NYS-registered dealer to file a new lien. All other liens must be recorded by the
lender sending a Notice of Lien (MV-900) and $5 lien fee OR an MV-900.1 (if they have an account with the Department of Motor Vehicles). To
be sure the lien is recorded before the title is issued, the lender should send the Notice of Lien with this application, OR as soon as possible after the
loan is made (these forms should not be given to a customer to mail in). For further information, obtain our pamphlet “What Lenders Should Know
About the NYS Vehicle and Boat Title Program” (Form MV-909) by contacting the Motor Vehicles Title Bureau, or by visiting our website
(www.dmv.ny.gov) under DMV Forms and Publications.
6. TITLE/LIEN FEE - The fee for a title for all vehicles, motorcycles, trailers and boats is $50. The fee for a Certificate of Title for a manufactured home
is $125. The fee for filing a lien is $5. Payment must be made by check or money order payable to “Commissioner of Motor Vehicles”. PLEASE
NOTE: We can only accept payment of the lien fee from a dealer or lienholder. The lien fee cannot be paid by the owner.
