For the buyer, the bill of sale serves as a basic requirement for either registering the vehicle or transferring the title of the newly-purchased vehicle. The bill should be completed and signed by the seller before being signed by the buyer.
It is important to make sure all the requirements for the respected state law are included in the bill of sale. As, with any legal written document a bill of sale can be handwritten.
If you have a bill of sale for your car, you can get a title for it. It just requires a bit of research and a few extra steps. Having the title can streamline your car ownership experience, proving legal ownership and serving as a vital form of record for your local DMV.
Getting a bill of sale notarized isn't always required, but it's often worth the effort. Notarization provides solid proof of agreement and can protect you in legal disputes. Always check local DMV requirements for specific transactions to avoid potential issues.
Notarization is NOT required in the “Transfer of Title by Seller” section on the Florida title even if there is a place for notarization. Federal rule specifies that Odometer Disclosures for all non-exempt vehicles are to be made in the “Transfer of Title by Seller” section of the Florida Certificate of Title.
While it is common to present a bill of sale in a digital format, you can also create this type of contractual agreement as a handwritten document on paper. What's most important is to include all of the pertinent details in the bill of sale in order to protect both parties.
Include the new owner's name, seller's name, addresses, and contact information of both the buyer and the seller. Provide a detailed description of the item being sold. Include relevant information such as the make, model, year, VIN, serial number, any distinguishing features, or disclaimers.
The form also documents the sale and is the legal receipt. Keep copies of the bill of sale (FLHSMV recommends having it notarized), certificate of title or other type of transaction document showing it was sold.
