Oregon Form 735-501 — Bill of Sale
Oregon DMV publishes an official Vehicle Bill of Sale — Form 735-501. You are not locked into the state form: DMV accepts any written bill of sale that carries the same information, but it will not process one that is missing the VIN, a statement releasing interest in the vehicle, the seller's printed name and signature, or the date of sale. Oregon charges no sales tax on private vehicle sales.
