New Jersey Vehicle Registration (3 Steps)

To avoid late fees, drivers must transfer the certificate of title to their name within 10 working days after the purchase.[1]

 

1. Obtain Title from Previous Owner

Buyers will need to obtain the title from the seller with the assignment section on the reserve side filled out and signed by both parties.

2. Visit an MVC Office

When the buyer is ready, they’ll need to bring the following to an MVC office (visits by appointment only)[2]:

Note: Additional paperwork is needed if the vehicle was purchased in another state, in a non-title state, or at auction.

3. Finish Registration

Once the buyer has submitted their paperwork and paid the associated fees and taxes, their vehicle will be registered in New Jersey. The MVC will then issue proof of registration, a new title, and a set of license plates.
