You’ll have to email or fax the request form (the DMV will give it to you) to your title company. Your title company has to mail the original title to the DMV of your choice.

You will have to follow up with your title company to see where they’re at in the process & this could take over 60 days. DC temp tags last for 45 days!

Had PNC as my loan provider. And they used a third party company to handle those kind of title requests. There’s no great way to track it/ they ended up not doing it. I ended up paying the rest of my loan balance (luckily wasn’t too much left) to get my title. It was the worst.

Good luck!

You also need a DC license, if you don’t already have one.

Yeah this process really sucks. My company sent it to the Rhode Island dmv and then it shut down. I had to take a loan to pay that loan to force the company to get a new title from the original state since it was lost
