Hey, I need some help. I lost my title and I recently moved from SC to FL. How can I request a duplicate title from SC if I’m now in FL? I’m kinda confused about how to do this… anyone know what the best way is?
You should request it online from SC DMV. I had to do that when I moved. Here’s the link: Replace a Title

But doesn’t it have to go through FL DMV first? Or do I just do it directly with SC?
@Cody
Nope, you have to go through SC first for the duplicate. Once that’s done, FL DMV will help you transfer your tags and registration.
I think they told you right, SC DMV handles the duplicate title. You’ll have to file with them even though you’re in FL.

Thanks, that clears it up! I wasn’t sure if FL DMV could handle it first.
Yeah, I had the same situation. It took a couple of weeks for SC DMV to send me the duplicate title, so make sure you have some patience lol.

Good to know. I’ll make sure to follow up if it takes too long.
The online process should be pretty smooth. Just make sure you have all your details, and you should be good to go.

Got it! I’ll gather everything I need for the request. Thanks!
Also, if you need to transfer your tags and registration to FL, you might need proof that SC DMV sent you the duplicate title. Just FYI!

Oh good to know! I wasn’t sure what they would need. I’ll make sure I get that!
