Iowa SF447 updates the process for replacing lost or destroyed vehicle titles, including fee changes and retroactive applicability.

Iowa SF447 modifies the procedure for obtaining replacement certificates of title for vehicles. It allows vehicle owners or lienholders to apply for a replacement title by surrendering the original, with a $30 fee. The bill increases the fee a county treasurer can retain from 40% of the $30 fee, which is $12, to $18. This change applies retroactively to replacement titles applied for on or after January 1, 2025. The replacement title must be clearly marked and include security interests and liens.
