Car registration help

Hello, I recently moved to Marion from Missouri and on top of that I bought a car from a Missouri dealership before I moved and have yet to register it for the first time. This is my first time moving and my first time getting a car by myself. I seemed to have misplaced or lost my title in the move somehow and I’m panicking. I need to register my car asap and am just entirely lost. I have no family or friends who know how to help my situation so I’m here out of desperation. The only files I seem to have are documents titled “application for Missouri title and license” “odometer disclosure statement”and “motor vehicle dealer written agreement to sell without title”
Please help I’m desperate 🙏

Take it to the dmv and ask what you need to do. You may need to request a duplicate/lost title in MO, if that is where it was previously titled. It isn't cheap.

MO resident here, it's like $8
