1. What if my decal or plates are lost in the mail?

If you do not receive your decals or plate in the mail within 14 days from mailing in your payment, contact our office at 402-441-7497 to inquire if they may have been returned to our office or lost. We ask that you come in and pick up a reprint/duplicate. We don't do reprints until 2 weeks/14 days have passed since they were sent out of our office. If you don't receive your decals or plates and the address has changed, we will still wait two weeks to reprint so that the original decals/plates have a chance to come back before we resend/reassign new info.

4. I lost my car title, how do I obtain a duplicate?

When a title has been lost, destroyed, or mutilated, you can obtain a duplicate title from the Motor Vehicle Office in any county. To obtain a duplicate title, you must submit a completed Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title (PDF). All person(s) whose name(s) appear on the face of the title must sign the completed application. The exception to this is a title that is held by husband and wife, in which case either, acting as agent for the other, may sign the application. All signatures must be notarized. The fee for a duplicate Certificate of Title is $14.
