To transfer the title of a vehicle to your daughter who has moved from Pennsylvania to Florida, you will need to follow these six steps:
- Obtain the Pennsylvania Title: If you don't have a physical copy of the Pennsylvania title, you will need to apply for a duplicate title by completing and submitting a Form MV-38O, "Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title," to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT). You can also apply for a duplicate title online through the PennDOT website.
- Complete the Transfer of Title: Once you have the Pennsylvania title, you will need to fill out the "Transfer of Ownership" section on the back of the title. You will need to include your daughter's name and address in Florida as the new owner.
- Obtain a Florida Title: Your daughter will need to obtain a new Florida title once the transfer of ownership is complete. She can do this by visiting a Florida DMV office and completing the necessary paperwork.
- Provide Proof of Insurance: Your daughter will need to provide proof of insurance for the vehicle before she can register it in Florida.
- Pay the Required Fees: Your daughter will need to pay the fees associated with transferring the title and registering the vehicle in Florida. The fees vary depending on the type of vehicle and the county where she lives.
- Complete the Registration: Once your daughter has obtained a Florida title, provided proof of insurance, and paid the necessary fees, she will need to register the vehicle with the Florida DMV.
