Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are selling their vehicle and wish to receive payments over time will find this form essential. It allows them to document the sale and ensure that both parties understand the terms of the installment payments.
  • Situations requiring proof of vehicle ownership transfer, such as when a buyer needs to register the vehicle in their name, will benefit from this bill of sale. This form provides the necessary documentation to establish legal ownership.
  • For those involved in a private sale of a vehicle, using this form helps protect both the seller and buyer by clearly outlining the terms of the sale. It minimizes potential disputes by documenting the agreed-upon conditions.
  • Buyers looking to purchase a vehicle 'as is' can utilize this form to acknowledge that they understand the vehicle's condition and accept it without warranties. This protects the seller from future claims regarding the vehicle's performance.
  • Sellers who want to ensure compliance with federal laws regarding odometer disclosure will find this form useful. It includes an odometer disclosure statement, which is required to inform the buyer of the vehicle's mileage.
