South Carolina title-related fees may include:
After you pay off a car loan, you need a lien release. This process is generally handled with the lender submitting the information to the SCDMV electronically, through the ELT system. Once the SCDMV processes the information, you will take your existing title to your local DMV to request a new, clear title. If your lender does not use the ELT system, then they will trigger a lien release document to you, and you will take this and your car title to the DMV for the new title. In the event that your lender is no longer in business, you may need to request a letter of non-interest in lieu of the lien release.
