Article 5. Renewals And Replacements of California Health And Safety Code >> Division 13. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 8. >> Article 5.

If any registration card or registration decal is stolen, lost, mutilated, or illegible, the registered owner of the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home for which it was issued, as shown by the records of the department, shall immediately make application for, and may, upon the applicant furnishing information satisfactory to the department and paying the required fees, obtain a duplicate, substitute, or new registration under a new registration number, as determined by the department.

If any certificate of title is stolen, lost, mutilated, or illegible, the legal owner of the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home for which it was issued, as shown by the records of the department, shall immediately make application for, and may, upon payment of required fees and the applicant furnishing information satisfactory to the department, obtain a duplicate certificate of title.

Except as otherwise provided in this part, every registration card for a manufactured home, mobilehome, or commercial coach subject to annual registration shall expire at midnight on the expiration date indicated on the registration card and shall be renewed prior to that expiration. The department, upon presentation by the registered owner of the registration card or potential registration card last issued and receipt of the proper renewal fees, shall renew the registration of a manufactured home, mobilehome, or commercial coach.

Certificates of title shall not be required to be renewed annually, but shall remain valid until a new or amended certificate of title is issued upon a transfer of any interest of the registered owner or legal owner shown thereon.

When the required certificate of title is stolen, lost, mutilated, or illegible, application for transfer may be made upon a form provided by the department for a duplicate certificate of ownership. The transferor shall sign and address the application, as appropriate, and file it together with the proper fees for duplicate certificate of ownership and transfer.
