Idaho Requirements for Car Titles

To obtain a vehicle title, you will need to complete a process that includes completing paperwork and supplying proof of ownership. The following is a general list of what you will need, but check with your local county for any variations:

  • Application Form ITD 0502 (from an in-state seller) or title application form; or Form ITD 3367 for a damaged car title
  • Current title (if paid for in full) or assigned title from seller
  • Valid identification, such as a driver’s license
  • Proof of vehicle insurance
  • Bill of sale
  • Odometer disclosure
  • VIN inspection for out-of-state vehicles

You will also need to pay several fees, such as:

  • Standard title fee ($14) and associated administrative fee ($7)
  • Duplicate or lost vehicle title fee ($14)
  • Late filing penalty if filed more than 30 days after the transfer ($20)
  • Rush fee (optional) ($26)
  • Liability release fee ($3.50)
  • Transitional ownership document ($26)

Fees are handled through your county’s DMV office. To avoid the late filing penalty, file within 30 days of paying off your car loan.

Idaho Lien Release Requirements

A vehicle lien release signifies you have paid for the vehicle in full. Once that has been completed, your lender will remove their legal claim. The lien release is usually triggered automatically upon payoff of the loan, and sent to the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). You will need to submit Form ITD 3367 along with the corresponding fee (between $14 and $28).

If you receive a paper title instead of an electronic notification, you will need to send it with the application Form 3367 mentioned above to the ITD directly (along with the corresponding fee).

I lost my Idaho car title. How do I replace it?

If you need assistance, or would rather not have to go through this process on your own, feel free to reach out to our team.

What is the application process for a replacement car title in Idaho?

You can use Form ITD 3367 to request a replacement or duplicate car title. It will need to be notarized if you are not returning it to the DMV in person. You will also need to pay the $14 fee. Idaho offers a rush service for a $40 fee if you need it faster.

How do I transfer a car title from a deceased owner in Idaho?

For a deceased owner car title transfer, you will need the death certificate along with the current title and an affidavit for inheritance. In Idaho, you can use Form ITD 3414 when the total estate is less than $60,000 and not probated. If you run into any difficulties, contact our team at CarTitles.com.

What is the lien removal process for a vehicle titled in Idaho?

When you pay off a vehicle loan in Idaho, your lender will automatically initiate the lien removal process. If your vehicle loan originated in a different state, you will need to check with the lender to confirm whether they use the electronic system, or if you need to contact them once your loan has been paid. If you receive a paper title in the mail instead of an electronic notification, then submit Form ITD 3367 to the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD).
