Vermont § 2018 - Information on certificate

§ 2018. Information on certificate

• (a) Each certificate of title issued by the Commissioner shall contain: (1) The date issued. (2) The name and address of the owner. (3) The names and addresses of any lienholders, in the order of priority as shown on the
  application or, if the application is based on a certificate of title, as shown on
  the certificate; however, no more than two lienholders may appear on a certificate.
  In the event that there are more than two lienholders on the vehicle, the certificate
  of title shall contain an appropriate legend as determined by the Commissioner. (4) The title number assigned to the vehicle. (5) A description of the vehicle, including, so far as the following data exist, its make,
  model, identification number, odometer reading, or hubometer reading or clock meter
  reading on all vehicles, type of body, number of cylinders, whether new or used, and,
  if a new vehicle, the date of the first sale of the vehicle for use. (6) Any other data the Commissioner prescribes. (b) Unless a bond is filed as provided in subdivision 2020(2) of this title, a distinctive certificate of title shall be issued for a vehicle last previously
  registered in another state or country the laws of which do not require that lienholders
  be named on a certificate of title to perfect their security interests. The certificate
  shall contain an appropriate legend as determined by the Commissioner and may contain
  any other information the Commissioner prescribes. If no notice of a security interest
  in the vehicle is received by the Commissioner within four months from the issuance
  of the distinctive certificate of title, he or she shall, upon application and surrender
  of the distinctive certificate, issue a certificate of title in ordinary form. (c) The certificate of title shall contain forms for assignment and warranty of title
  by the owner and for assignment and warranty of title by a dealer, and may contain
  forms for applications for a certificate of title by a transferee, the naming of a
  lienholder, and the assignment or release of the security interest of a lienholder. (d) A certificate of title issued by the Commissioner is prima facie evidence of the facts
  appearing on it. (e) A certificate of title for a vehicle is not subject to garnishment, attachment, execution,
  or other judicial process, but this subsection does not prevent a lawful levy upon
  the vehicle. (f) If a vehicle has been returned to the manufacturer after final determination, adjudication,
  or settlement pursuant to the provisions of 9 V.S.A. chapter 115 or after final determination, adjudication, or settlement under similar laws of any
  other state, any certificate of title for the vehicle shall contain an appropriate
  legend as determined by the Commissioner. (Added 1969, No. 297 (Adj. Sess.), § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1971; amended 1983, No. 60, § 5; 1983, No. 141 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. Jan. 1, 1985; 1999, No. 18, § 34, eff. May 13, 1999; 2015, No. 50, § 17.)
