Utah TC-843 — Bill of Sale
Utah Form TC-843 is the official bill of sale published by Utah's Division of Motor Vehicles — and in Utah the document has direct tax consequences. If the buyer cannot produce a signed bill of sale meeting the DMV's content requirements, sales tax is calculated on the vehicle's statutory Fair Market Value (Utah Code §59-2-102) instead of the actual purchase price.

About TC-843
Official name: Utah Form TC-843 — Bill of Sale
Issued by: Utah Division of Motor Vehicles
Purpose: Documents a private vehicle sale in Utah. Submitted with the signed title at the DMV; establishes the actual price (and any trade-in allowance) as the sales tax base — without it, the DMV uses Fair Market Value.
When required: Every Utah private sale benefits from one. The DMV requires the bill of sale to show the buyer's name and address; the seller's name, address, and signature; the full vehicle description with VIN; any trade-in and its allowance; the purchase price; and the net purchase price — in ink, not pencil.
