There are also several fees that you will need to pay as part of the title recovery process:
Fees are paid at your local NC License Plate Agency (LPA) and they are due when you complete your title registration.
The lien release is a legal document that proves a lender or lienholder has removed their claim on your vehicle. If you recently paid off a car loan, you will need a lien release from your lender. In North Carolina, lenders usually notify the NCDOT electronically; alternately, they may send a paper release. Either way, you will receive a paper title by mail once the DOT has processed the information. If your lender does not start the process, you may need to contact them directly. In the event that your lender is no longer in business, or is unresponsive, you may need to contact the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or request a court-ordered title.
