What Is the MV-82 Form?

Form MV-82 (also known as the Vehicle Registration/Title Application) collects essential information about the vehicle, the owner, and any lienholders. It is used for:

• Initial registration of a newly purchased vehicle
• Title transfer after a sale
• Address or name changes on an existing registration
• Renewing an expired registration

The form is required by the New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and must be submitted with supporting documents and the appropriate fee.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Even with a fillable PDF, errors can cause delays. Keep these tips in mind:

• Incorrect VIN – double‑check the Vehicle Identification Number; a single digit error can invalidate the application.
• Missing signatures – both the owner and, if applicable, the lienholder must sign.
• Out‑of‑date address – ensure the address matches your current NY DMV records.
• Wrong fee amount – verify the current registration fee on the DMV website before paying.

Where to Submit the Completed Form

After filling out the MV-82, you can submit it in one of three ways:

• In person at any New York State DMV office.
• By mail to the address listed on the form’s instructions.
• Through a licensed dealer if you’re purchasing a vehicle from a dealership.
