Title Complete Notice Not Received?

If you have not received a Title Complete Notice and your temporary tag is nearing expiration, contact our Motor Vehicle Office, 520-6240, or the title clerk at the dealership and ask for the date when the Motor Vehicle Office signed for the paperwork. Then, come into our office with that date, the dealership name, proof of Colorado insurance and Secure and Verifiable Identification to register your vehicle.

If the dealership has not sent the paperwork, you can request an extension of the temporary tag by coming into our office with your proof of Colorado insurance, Secure and Verifiable Identification and purchase order.
