Michigan uses an Electronic Lien and Title system. If you have a lien on your vehicle, you won't receive a paper title.

There's nothing else you need to do. The Secretary of State will maintain the electronic version of your title until your lender releases the lien.

When you pay off the loan, verify your mailing address with your lender. Your lender will release the lien electronically and a paper title will be automatically mailed to you.

If you do not have a lien on your vehicle, a paper title will be mailed to the address you provided. If you don't receive your new title in 60 days, call 888-767-6424.
