The Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles is fully responsible for printing all titles. Lienholders who have the Nevada Electronic Lien and Title account with Nevada ELT may request a printed title through the system, but they are not required to do so. They can leave the title in electronic format or they can instruct the customer to visit a local Nevada DMV office or tag agency to request a printed title.
