  • need a checklist for this

Expedited Title

For an additional fee, you can request your duplicate title be expedited. At FastPass, we can print your title in-house and have it ready for pick-up the next business day after processing. Now that’s fast!

Duplicate Title

Did you misplace your title? Here's what to do!  Check your registration or give us a call to find your title number. If your title number is a set of numbers, no need to worry—FastPass can issue a duplicate! Just bring your VIN number, Driver’s License, and lien release (if applicable), and we’ll have the duplicate mailed to you within 5-7 business days.

If your title number consists of four letters, your title isn’t lost! It’s still held in electronic form by your lienholder.

Title Transfer

Whether it is a vehicle sale or donation, FastPass can help.

Vehicle Sales

Buying or selling a vehicle? FastPass Tag & Title makes the transfer process simple and hassle-free! We prepare and notarize all required documents, issue a new license plate on the spot, and take care of every detail—no OMV trips needed. Our FastPass guarantee ensures a quick and smooth experience.

For basic transactions just bring the title, buyer’s proof of insurance, and valid state-issued IDs for all parties. If notary is needed, the buyer(s) and seller(s) must also be present. 

Have unique circumstances or an absent seller? Call or visit us for assistance! 

Act of Donation

Gifting a vehicle? FastPass Tag & Title makes it easy! Vehicle donations, or Authentic Acts, are completed before a Notary with two witnesses, transferring ownership with no monetary exchange. Most donations are tax-free, with only Title, Registration, and Plate fees. 

Just bring the donor, donee, vehicle title, donee’s proof of insurance, and valid IDs—we’ll handle the rest, including instantly issuing a license plate to the new owner.

Out of State Transfers

New to Louisiana and need to register your vehicle? FastPass Tag & Title makes it easy! If your car is paid off, bring your Title, valid photo ID, proof of insurance, and we’ll instantly issue your License Plate and Registration.

Still making payments or leasing? We’ll work with your Lender or Lessor to gather the required documents and minimize delays.

Vehicle transfers from the following states must show proof of taxes paid in the form of a state issued registration, dealer’s invoice, bill of sale, or taxing authority receipt to receive a tax credit: Delaware, Dist. of Columbia, and Nebraska.

Branded Titles

A branded title is a permanent note on a vehicle's title, signaling damage that might impact its safety, reliability, or value. In Louisiana, the Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) requires a completed Vehicle Application Form (DPSMV1799) to disclose this information on the title.  

Additional documentation might be needed, but our experienced team is here to answer any questions and provide you with assistance in getting the transactions completed.

Great place! No wait, quick, and friendly customer service from Gen! In and out in about 15 mins with a new Real ID license and regular ID. Used my Passport, car registration, and banking statement to verify myself and address. Definitely recommend will be back if I need anything else! (There will be a $23 convenience fee, but absolutely worth it to not deal with the wait and terror that is the real DMV!)
