All vehicles in Rhode Island require a title, which is your proof of ownership. The vehicle title is also necessary when you sell or transfer ownership to someone else. While you have an active car loan, your lender is listed on the title as a lineholder. As soon as you pay off that loan, you will need a new, clear car title. If you do not currently have your vehicle’s title, you can go through the process to request it. We have outlined those steps below. However, if you do not want the hassle of figuring out forms, fees, and other details to the process, CarTitles.com can help with your title recovery. Just click the link below to get started with our team.
Rhode Island title-related fees may include:
When a car loan is paid off, your lender will either sign and return the original title to you, or send a separate lien release letter, which proves your loan has been paid in full. Rhode Island does not require that you apply for a new, clean title, but you must keep the lien release letter with your title to prove ownership when needed. If you lose your title, you will need to request a duplicate title using the TR-2/TR9 form linked above. You will need your lien release letter as well.
