Secure Power of Attorney is used by a registered Pennsylvania motor vehicle dealer or by a PennDOT-approved insurance company when a seller’s original proof of ownership is being held by a lienholder and is not available at the time the vehicle is transferred. It may also be used when the seller lost the certificate of title and the dealer or insurance company is applying for a duplicate certificate of title. NOTE: Approved insurance companies may use an e-POA in lieu of Form MV-POA, the Secure Power of Attorney form, with the transfer of salvaged vehicles.
