Welcome to the West Virginia Digital Title Verification Portal
The State of West Virginia has transitioned to a secure, fully digital vehicle title process. The West Virginia Digital Vehicle Title is legally recognized and fully transactable. Both in-state and out-of-state titling authorities are required to recognize and accept the West Virginia Digital Title as legal proof of ownership.
Digital Titles provide a higher level of security compared to traditional paper titles. A Digital Title offers a permanent and tamper-proof record of ownership and cannot be duplicated or modified by an unauthorized party. Only authorized titling authorities can issue, update or terminate them, ensuring complete secure control over vehicle title data throughout the lifecycle of the title.
The West Virginia digital title was officially added to the JD Power Handbook as a valid format of vehicle title and West Virginia residents can now obtain digital vehicle titles in place of paper titles.
Much like a mobile boarding pass, the Digital Title enables the holder to quickly, easily and more accurately conduct a transaction using the digital credential. In the case of Digital Title, the holder can buy, sell, transfer, or trade a vehicle.
Verification and authentication of the Digital Title can be accomplished by running an NMVTIS VIN inquiry, as is done with standard title transactions, and via this site, the West Virginia Verification portal, which provides direct authentication against the current West Virginia record.
