    You have to request a duplicate title.

    In order to do that you have to fill out form MV-38O

    go to this website- it is the form that has to be completed.

    http://www.dot3.state.pa.us/pdotforms/mv_forms/mv-...

    Also there is a $22.50 fee.

    Hope that helps!!!

  • Have you gotten the title in your name in PA? If yes, then you can order the dup title. If not, then the previous owner from Delaware will need to contact his DMV and he needs to get the dup title.

    If the title is already in your name in PA, then yes you can get plates. Just take the copy and your license and insurance for that vehicle to an auto tag's place and get the plate. The State fee will be $36 (registration) service fees will probably be applied.

    If it is not in your name yet, then you need to wait until you get the title from Delaware to do the transfer.

    Good Luck!

    The identify workplace work became in all probability fixed up once you got the motor vehicle. The broker will deliver the workplace work in to the state and in case you have not got a private loan on the motor vehicle you will get carry of the identify interior of a few weeks. in case you have a private loan on the motor vehicle the identify would be held by the own loan business enterprise till the own loan is paid in complete. as quickly as the own loan is paid, the own loan business enterprise will then launch the identify to you. in case you have a private loan you would be required to hold complete insurance coverage on the motor vehicle till the own loan is paid off. As for the license plates you will in all probability ought to pass to the interior of reach DMV workplace and get them interior of maximum in all probability 30 days. you in all probability can pass your license plates out of your previous motor vehicle to your new one as long as your previous motor vehicle became no longer a pickup truck or something different than a motor vehicle. maximum places that sell vehicles have it set up once you purchase a motor vehicle that the identify and registration workplace work is carried out by the broker and the broker will deliver all of it into the state all once you sign all the workplace work once you purchase the motor vehicle. i could suspect this became accomplished on your subject besides. just to make specific and to ease your innovations, supply the broker you get carry of the motor vehicle from and ask them if this became what became accomplished once you get carry of the motor vehicle. stable success, andcontinual properly!!
