Lost, damaged, or never received your Arkansas title? You still have legal ways to sell. Here's how it works in 2026, based on official Arkansas rules — plus the fastest way to just get a cash offer.
In Arkansas, a vehicle needs a title to be legally sold. If yours is missing, here's how to fix it and sell, based on Arkansas DFA rules.
The last titled owner(s) of record sign an Application for Replacement Title through the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration. The replacement fee is $10. If a lien is recorded, the lienholder must sign a permission form (10-315) or provide a lien release.
If all you have is a bill of sale, Arkansas offers a bonded title: submit Form 10-345 (Statement of Facts), a bill of sale, and a VIN inspection by law enforcement / Arkansas State Police. Once approved, buy a surety bond for 1.5× the vehicle's value (3-year term). Arkansas requires you to disclose the 'bonded' brand if you sell before the three years are up.
