2Rights of Survivorship Ownership Agreement for a Motor Vehicle
Information
When two or more persons enter into a Rights of Survivorship agreement, the motor vehicle is jointly owned (co-owned) by
those persons. If one or more of the persons that completed a Rights of Survivorship agreement dies, ownership of the vehicle
transfers to the other person(s) that signed the agreement. A vehicle does not have to be titled or registered in the names of all
persons in the agreement. All person(s) shown in the Rights of Survivorship agreement must act jointly (sign the certificate of title)
if the ownership of the vehicle is transferred prior to the death of any person(s) in a Rights of Survivorship agreement.
Instructions
Rights of Survivorship Only Between Individuals Married to One Another (Part A Only)
Part A of this form should be completed when individuals married to one another enter into a Rights of Survivorship agreement.
Part A must be completed with each spouse’s legal name as it appears on his or her government issued photo identification. The
first box in the Certification section must be marked, and each spouse must sign and date this form. A legally married couple is not
required to submit any documentation to verify they are married.
Rights of Survivorship Between Individuals Married to One Another and Additional Individuals (Parts A and B)
Parts A and B of this form should be completed when individuals married to one another (Part A) and additional individual(s) (Part
B) enter into a Rights of Survivorship agreement. Part A must be completed with each spouse’s legal name as it appears on his or
her government issued photo identification. Part B must be completed with each additional individual’s legal name as it appears on
their individual government issued photo identification. The second box in the “Certification” section must be marked, and each
spouse and each additional individual must sign and date this form. A legally married couple is not required to submit any
documentation to verify they are married. There is no restriction on the relationship with the additional individual(s) (e.g.,
children, stepchildren, parents, extended family, or persons legally unrelated to one another).
Rights of Survivorship Only Between Individuals Not Married to One Another (Part B Only)
Part B of this form should be completed when only individuals unmarried to one another enter into a Rights of Survivorship
agreement with one another. Part B must be completed with each unmarried individual’s legal name as it appears on his or her
government issued photo identification. The third box in the “Certification” section must be marked and each individual must sign
and date this form. There is no restriction on the relationship between individuals not married to one another (e.g., children,
stepchildren, parents, extended family, or persons legally unrelated to one another).
Spouse Not Included in Rights of Survivorship Agreement (Part C, if applicable)
Part C of this form must be completed if a married individual enters into a Rights of Survivorship agreement with another
individual to whom they are not married (Part B is completed), AND the spouse is not included in the Rights of Survivorship
agreement (therefore, Part A is not completed). In addition to Part B (only) being completed as detailed above, Part C must be
completed with the legal name of the spouse not included in the Rights of Survivorship agreement as it appears on their
government issued photo identification. In addition to the third box in the “Certification” section being marked and accompanied
by the applicable signatures of the individuals listed in Part B, the spouse listed in Part C must sign and date the “Certification for
Spouse Not Included in Rights of Survivorship” section.
Using the Rights of Survivorship Agreement
Upon completion of this form, two options are available:
1. Have a “Survivorship Rights” remark placed on the Texas title:
• Submit this completed Form VTR-122 with an Application for Texas Title and/or Registration (Form 130-U) to a county tax
assessor-collector’s office. In addition to the remark, up to two names can be printed as survivors on the Texas title. If there
are more than two survivors, “Multiple Survivors” is printed. The completed Form VTR-122 is imaged into the Texas title
history and is retained according to retention policies.
• After the death of any of the persons named in the agreement, the survivor(s) may obtain a new Texas title by submitting a
new Application for Texas Title and/or Registration (Form 130-U) in the name of the survivor(s) supported by a copy of the
deceased person(s) death certificate.
2. Retain this original form:
• After death of any person(s) named in this agreement, the survivor(s) may obtain a new title by submitting a new
Application for Texas Title and/or Registration (Form 130-U) in the name of the survivor(s), this completed form, and a copy
of the death certificate.
Revoking the Rights of Survivorship Agreement
If a Texas record reflects a “Survivorship Rights” remark, a new Application for Texas Title and/or Registration (Form 130-U) and
the Texas title signed by all individuals listed on the Rights of Survivorship agreement must be submitted to a county tax assessor-
collector’s office to remove the remark and issue a new Texas title in the owner(s)’s name without the remark.
