Minnesota Vehicle Title Forms You Need

3 min read

When dealing with vehicle ownership in Minnesota, having the correct forms is crucial. Whether you're transferring ownership, applying for a duplicate title, or releasing a lien, the Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) requires specific documents to process your request accurately and promptly.

Key Vehicle Title Forms in Minnesota

Here are the most commonly used forms related to vehicle titles in Minnesota:

Application to Title and Register a Motor Vehicle (Form PS2000)

This is the primary form for titling and registering a newly purchased or transferred vehicle. It is used when:

  • Buying a new or used vehicle from a dealer or private party
  • Transferring ownership between family members
  • Bringing a vehicle into Minnesota from another state

You can access the form directly from the Minnesota DVS website.

Duplicate Title Application (Form PS2067)

If your original vehicle title is lost, stolen, or damaged, you'll need to file a Duplicate Title Application. The form requires information such as:

  • Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
  • Owner's information
  • A notarized signature (if requested by mail)

Vehicle Lien Release (Form PS2017)

If you’ve paid off your vehicle loan, the lienholder must complete and sign this form to release the lien on the title. The completed form must be submitted to DVS to update the title status.

Odometer Disclosure Statement (Form PS2018)

Required for most vehicle title transfers when the vehicle is less than 10 years old. It ensures accurate mileage reporting to prevent fraud. This information is usually included on the title itself, but this standalone form may be needed in specific cases.

Power of Attorney (Form PS2003)

If someone else is handling your vehicle title transaction, this form grants them legal permission to act on your behalf.

Where to Submit These Forms

Most title-related forms can be submitted in person at a Minnesota DMV office or by mail to:

Driver and Vehicle Services
445 Minnesota Street, Suite 187
Saint Paul, MN 55101-5187

Always check that the form is complete and signed properly, and include any required payment for processing fees.

Additional Tips for Title Processing

  • Ensure all signatures are notarized when required.
  • Use the current version of each form from the Minnesota DVS website.
  • Double-check VIN and personal details to avoid delays.
