What to include in a bill of sale

A vehicle bill of sale protects both the buyer and the seller in a private transaction. Make sure yours captures the essentials:

  • Full names and addresses of both parties.
  • Vehicle make, model, year and VIN.
  • Odometer reading and the agreed sale price.
  • The date of sale and signatures from both parties.

Keep a signed copy for your records, and check whether your state requires the form to be notarized.
