Free New Brunswick RV Bill of Sale
New Brunswick's actual-price tax rule scales beautifully to RVs: the 15% HST applies to the real declared price with no book-value floor, so an honestly negotiated motorhome deal is honestly taxed — a genuine advantage at price points where other provinces' wholesale floors add thousands. No inspection applies to standard private sales (motorhome or trailer), leaving the full stack to the buyer: PPSA search, CARFAX on motorhomes, habitation inspection with Maritime damp and salt attention, and a winterization record on anything stored through NB's freeze-thaw cycles. Service New Brunswick processes both classes.

New Brunswick RV Bill of Sale — What You Need to Know
Tax Details
The declared-price rule matters most at RV money: 15% HST on what was genuinely paid — no book floor inflating the base — makes NB one of the friendlier Atlantic provinces for a sharp motorhome deal.
Exemption: Immediate-family RV transfers ride the same sworn-declaration exemption as cars; Service NB holds the current criteria.
Inspection Requirements
An NB-to-NB motorhome sale needs no inspection. A coach arriving from outside the province — or one with a rebuilt history, common in the RV world — must pass inspection before registration.
New Brunswick RV Sale — Step-by-Step Checklist
- Record the true price — NB taxes the actual declaration, an RV-scale advantage worth protecting.
- Run the PPSA search; CARFAX motorhomes.
- Commission the habitation inspection with damp and salt attention.
- Review the winterization record — NB freeze-thaw punishes skipped years.
- Complete the transfer at Service New Brunswick.
Common Pitfalls
- Fantasy declarations that waste the no-floor privilege — implausible RV prices invite review.
- Assuming any inspection happened — NB mandates none on either RV class.
- Skipping the winterization question on a four-season-stored rig.
- Ignoring salt exposure on coastal-community stock.
Pro Tip
NB RVs: honest price, honest tax, zero oversight — the buyer who inspects like the province won't gets the Maritimes' best RV deal.
