Registration and Title Bulletin #025-07

These documents contain text of correspondence sent by TxDOT to the county tax assessor-collectors, statutory agents who provide vehicle registration and titling services for citizens in Texas. This information is provided to apprise the general public of issues affecting the state’s vehicle titling and registration process.

PURPOSE
To advise of an error concerning some recently issued Oregon titles.

DETAILS
Due to a vendor error, some Oregon titles have been issued that indicate the word “VOID” on the original title document.

The control numbers for the affected titles are 9630001 through 9680001, and the Julian dates in the title numbers are 164 through 173. The Julian date is the 3rd, 4th, and 5th digits of the title number.

COUNTY ACTION
If an Oregon title is presented to your office that indicates the word VOID, please check the control number of the title document and the Julian date. If it is determined that the Oregon title is one of these affected documents, the title is valid and should be accepted as valid evidence of ownership.

If the Oregon title cannot be identified as one of the affected titles, then it should be treated as a photocopy and may not be accepted as valid evidence of ownership.

CONTACT
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact your local Vehicle Titles and Registration Division Regional Office.

In some cases the Registration and Title Bulletins (RTB) contain attachments. If you require a copy of the original signed RTB and the attachments, please e-mail us and include the RTB number. Repeat requests are subject to charges in accordance with Open Record policies.
