Free Alaska Free Printable Bill of Sale
Alaska imposes no state sales tax on vehicle purchases, and the state has no official bill of sale form for private sales. Within 30 days the buyer must submit the signed title with Form V1 — at an Alaska DMV office or by mail — to title and register the vehicle; the DMV says a bill of sale is not valid for the ownership transfer, but it is worth keeping as a record.

Alaska Free Printable Sale — Step-by-Step Checklist
- Print or type your bill of sale — include the VIN, year, make, model, odometer reading, sale price, sale date, and full legal names and addresses of both buyer and seller.
- Both parties signing at the sale finishes it — no notarization, no witnessing.
- Seller completes the title transfer section on the back of the certificate of title, signing it over to the buyer.
- Print two copies of the signed bill of sale — one for the seller and one for the buyer.
- Buyer brings the signed title and Form V1 (plus proof of insurance) to a DMV office, or mails the title packet, within 30 days of the sale; the bill of sale stays with the parties as their record.
- Pay applicable registration fees at the DMV — no state sales tax applies, but local borough taxes may apply in some areas.
Common Pitfalls
- Failing to transfer within 30 days can result in late fees and the seller remaining liable for the vehicle on record.
- Some Alaska boroughs and cities collect local sales taxes — verify whether one applies before assuming the transaction is fully tax-free.
- Omitting the odometer reading from the bill of sale is a federal compliance issue for vehicles of model year 2011 or newer.
- Sellers should keep their copy of the bill of sale until they receive confirmation the title has been transferred, protecting them against future tickets or liability.
Alaska Free Printable Bill of Sale — FAQs
Does Alaska require a notarized bill of sale?
No. Alaska does not require notarization for a private party vehicle bill of sale. Both parties simply sign the document at the time of sale.
Is there really no sales tax on vehicle purchases in Alaska?
Alaska has no statewide sales tax, so vehicle purchases carry no state tax. However, some local boroughs and municipalities levy their own sales taxes, so check your local rates.
How many identical originals should be executed?
Two — one for the seller's records and one for the buyer's. The DMV says a bill of sale is not valid for the ownership transfer, so the signed title and Form V1 are what go to the DMV.
Can I submit the title transfer by mail in Alaska?
Yes, Alaska DMV accepts title transfer paperwork by mail. However, visiting a DMV office in person is faster and allows you to resolve any documentation issues on the spot.
