Vehicle TOD in Nebraska

Nebraska allows a transfer-on-death beneficiary designation on a vehicle title. It names someone to receive the vehicle directly at your death, without probate. You keep full ownership and control during your lifetime — you can sell the vehicle, or change or cancel the designation, at any time.

In Nebraska, the designation is made through the County Treasurer / county Motor Vehicle Office (Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles oversees motor vehicle records) using Application for Certificate of Title (Form RV-707). Notarization is not required. A new certificate of title is issued showing the beneficiary.

Nebraska extends the designation beyond cars: it covers vehicle (titled under the motor vehicle certificate of title act) and motorboat (titled under the state boat act).

A vehicle TOD designation covers only the vehicle on the title — not your home, accounts, or other property. A revocable living trust covers all of your assets in a single document and avoids probate for everything it holds. Compare the approaches with the trust vs. will tool.

When you're ready, we're here.

A revocable living trust skips probate, stays private, and takes 15 minutes.
