Free Yukon General Bill of Sale
A general bill of sale in Yukon is a legal contract recording the private transfer of personal property — furniture, electronics, tools, equipment, jewelry, or any tangible item that does not carry a provincial title. Unlike vehicle sales, there is no government registration step; the signed bill of sale is the sole proof of ownership transfer.

Yukon General Bill of Sale — What You Need to Know
Tax Details
GST/HST may apply if the seller is a GST-registered business. Private individual-to-individual sales of used personal property are typically exempt.
Exemption: Private sales between individuals who are not GST registrants are generally exempt from GST. Transfers between immediate family members may also qualify for a reduced or waived registration fee adjustment — confirm with Yukon MV.
Inspection Requirements
No inspection is required for general personal-property sales.
Yukon General Sale — Step-by-Step Checklist
- Full legal names and addresses of buyer and seller
- Clear description of each item (make, model, serial number if applicable)
- Condition: new, used, refurbished, or as-is
- Sale price and payment method
- Date of sale
- Whether the item carries a warranty or is sold as-is
- Both parties sign; keep a copy for at least 3 years
Common Pitfalls
- Vague item descriptions create disputes — always include make, model, and serial number.
- Omitting "as-is" language may allow buyers to claim the item was misrepresented.
- An undated bill of sale is much weaker evidence if a dispute arises.
Pro Tip
The Yukon's 30-day transfer window is the most buyer-friendly in Canada, but it does not mean unlimited time — the safety inspection needs to be scheduled early, especially outside Whitehorse. Sellers should remove plates on sale day and file their copy of the bill of sale. EV buyers should check the current carbon rebate amount at yukon.ca before completing the transaction.
