NYS DMV Form MV-902. Application for Duplicate Certificate of Title
The New York State MV-902 “Application for Duplicate Title” is the form used when the original Certificate of Title for a vehicle, boat, or manufactured home has been lost, destroyed, damaged, or becomes unreadable. Although the form itself looks simple, the process is tightly regulated: only the legal owner or a properly authorized representative can request a new title, and certain supporting documents must be submitted depending on the situation. This guide explains what each section means, how to avoid common mistakes, and what documentation is required in typical real-world cases.
