Nevada DMV testing new “turbo title” system

CARSON CITY, Nev. (KOLO) – The Nevada DMV is unveiling a new online service in certain portion of the state.

Their new “turbo titles” launched at the Elko and Sahara Las Vegas DMV offices last Monday.

The Nevada DMV says the new system is designed to speed up the process of applying for new and duplicate titles faster for eligible residents of Nevada. Customers will be able to upload documents remotely through a DriveNV portal and fast pass their initial trip to the Nevada DMV office.

“The Nevada DMV processes about 285,000 standard titles a year,” stated Public Information Officer Paolo David. “Turbo Titles will speed up the titling process for our customers, which will provide greater convenience to our community.”

Those who are eligible to participate in this service are:

• Customers who have purchased or leased a vehicle from an out-of-state dealer or private party
• Customers who have received a vehicle from a private party or family member as a gift
• New residents to Nevada with an existing vehicle
• Customers in need of a duplicate Nevada title

“Our Turbo Titles release is very similar to our last release, Rapid Registration, which means it is the very first phase of this service,” said Public Information Officer Hailey Foster. “Customers will still need to make an appointment to pay and verify the title documentation they submitted.”

One payment is complete, customers will get the title via mail to the address provided.

If a lienholder is on the title, the lienholder will receive the paper or electronic title based on information supplied to the DMV.
