MV-82PSD

The NY DMV form MV-82, titled Vehicle Registration/Title Application, is the primary document used in New York State to register a vehicle, renew or change a registration, replace lost or damaged registration items, or apply for a title only. It accommodates a wide range of vehicles, including passenger cars, commercial trucks, trailers, motorcycles, and specialized equipment like ATVs and snowmobiles. The form requires comprehensive information regarding the primary registrant, the vehicle description (including VIN, body type, and fuel source), and odometer readings.

Key legal and procedural requirements integrated into the application include certifications that the vehicle is properly insured, has passed required safety inspections, and is not subject to unsatisfied tolling violations. If the registrant is not the vehicle owner, Section 3 must be completed and signed by the owner. Additionally, the form addresses specific scenarios such as name and address changes, transfers of plates, and declarations for "Rebuilt Salvage" vehicles if damage exceeds 75% of the value. For business or corporate registrations, authorized agents must provide government-issued photo ID and relevant corporate documentation.
