About the Free Printable Bill of Sale

A free printable vehicle bill of sale is a pre-formatted document that can be filled out by hand or on a computer, printed, and signed by both buyer and seller. While some states have official DMV forms, a well-formatted generic printable bill of sale is accepted for title transfer in all 50 states as long as it contains the required fields: seller and buyer identification, vehicle VIN, odometer reading, sale price, date, and both signatures.

When to Use This Form

Use a free printable bill of sale any time you need a paper copy for a private vehicle or property transaction. Print two copies — one for the buyer to submit at the DMV, one for the seller's records. If you need to fill out the form by hand at the point of sale, print the blank form ahead of time.

Legal Tip

Fill in all fields before printing. Do not leave blank spaces that could be filled in later. Both parties should initial any corrections made on the printed form. Never sign a blank bill of sale and hand it to the other party.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I print a bill of sale at home?
Yes. A bill of sale printed at home on standard 8.5" × 11" paper is legally valid in all 50 states. You do not need special paper, a notary seal, or an official DMV form for most states — your own printed form works as long as it contains the required information.
Is a printable bill of sale the same as an official DMV form?
Most states accept a generic printable bill of sale for private vehicle transfers. Some states (Louisiana, for example) have official forms that are required or strongly preferred, while states like Texas and Florida publish their own optional forms that are widely used. Check your state's DMV website to confirm which documents are accepted for title transfer in your state.
What fields must a printable vehicle bill of sale include?
A valid printable vehicle bill of sale must include: (1) seller's full legal name, address, and signature; (2) buyer's full legal name and address; (3) vehicle year, make, model, and color; (4) full 17-character VIN; (5) exact odometer reading; (6) sale price in dollars; (7) date of sale; and (8) both parties' signatures. For vehicles under 10 model years old, a federal odometer disclosure statement is also required.
Do I need to notarize a printed bill of sale?
Most states do not require notarization for a standard vehicle bill of sale. States that do require or strongly recommend notarization include Louisiana, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, and West Virginia. Even where it is optional, notarizing adds legal weight and can help resolve disputes.
How many copies of a printable bill of sale should I make?
Print and sign at least two copies — one for the buyer (who will submit it to the DMV to transfer the title) and one for the seller (to keep as proof of sale). Some states recommend three copies. Both copies should be originals with wet ink signatures, not photocopies.
Can I use a printed bill of sale for a boat, motorcycle, or trailer?
Yes. A generic printable bill of sale works for boats, motorcycles, trailers, ATVs, and most other vehicles. However, for boats you should include the Hull Identification Number (HIN) instead of or in addition to a VIN, and for trailers you should note the GVWR. Our vehicle-specific templates include the correct fields for each type automatically.
