New York DTF-802 — Bill of Sale

New York does not have a separate official "bill of sale" form — instead, Form DTF-802 (Statement of Transaction for Sales Tax) serves the same purpose. Both the buyer and seller complete DTF-802, which is submitted to the DMV with the title to document the sale price and calculate the 4% state + local sales tax.
