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 motor vehicle title.

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 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.

FAQs

No problem. Visit one of our locations and we will assist you with getting a duplicate. Just bring in your valid driver's license and one of the following: license plate number, VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), or proof of insurance.

First, report the theft to local police station immediately to document the incident. Next, FastPass can help you apply.

Title transfer between individuals must be notarized. All sellers listed on the front of the title and the buyer(s) must be present to sign. If the seller(s) can’t be there, he/she must sign in front of two witnesses, and both witnesses must be present at the transfer with valid state-issued IDs. Bring the signed title, and if the buyer needs a plate, also bring proof of insurance in the buyer’s name for the purchased vehicle. FastPass will take care of the rest!

Title transfer fees start at $76.50, plus sales tax based on the sales price, purchase date, and the buyer’s residential address. Additional fees, if applicable, may include a license plate fee and a mortgage fee.

Bring in your vehicle registration or renewal notice, as well as valid proof of insurance and driver’s license. FastPass can renew your plate on the spot.

If you received a vehicle as a gift, the title transfer must be completed by an Act of Donation and notarized as an authentic act. You’ll need the original vehicle title. Everyone listed on the front of the title must be present to sign. The receiver of the vehicle must also be present to sign. If a license plate is needed, bring proof of insurance for the vehicle in the recipient’s name. FastPass will handle the rest.

Yes. To avoid fines for having no insurance, you must cancel your license plate before cancelling your liability insurance. If you’d like to keep the same plate for future use, that’s no problem! Simply visit any FastPass location to sign a Statement of Non-Use. Once that’s done, the plate must be removed from the vehicle.

Walk-ins welcome, but we take appointments too!
