Montana Bill of Sale Requirements
Additional Forms Required in Montana
- Application for Certificate of Title for a Motor Vehicle (Form MV1)
Montana requires a bill of sale for private party vehicle sales. The state charges no sales tax on vehicle purchases, making it an attractive state for vehicle transactions.
Montana gives buyers a 40-calendar-day grace period under MCA 61-3-317 to apply for title and registration at their county treasurer's office; driving on public roads during the grace period requires displaying a temporary registration permit. (The separate 60-day rule applies only to new Montana residents.)
Notarization is not required but recommended for high-value transactions. Montana does not require emissions testing or safety inspections for standard vehicle transfers.
