There is a new online system called the eMV Public which is designed to assist Wisconsin residents who purchase or acquire a vehicle and need to title & register it in their name. It's available for autos, light trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles & can be done by visiting the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Website.
In order to use the system, you'll need to have:
- Wisconsin title, signed by the seller(s), including: An odometer reading completed by the seller(s) on the back of the title for vehicles less than 10 model years old.
- A lien release if there is a lien holder listed on the front of the title and the loan is paid off.
- A printer with 8 ½ by 11 inch paper. and the Adobe Acrobat Readers (you may need to adjust the default viewer to use Adobe Acrobat Reader for different internet browsers)
- A Wisconsin Driver License or Identification card, last four digits of your social security number and date of birth.
Note: Never buy a vehicle without seeing and receiving a title signed by the previous owner.
Wisconsin residents, if you have questions about securing insurance protection for your newly acquired auto, please contact us and we'll give you a quote.
