FAQ
For motor vehicles, you can use the form that the state of California provides (Form Reg-135) or you can draft an original document. California does not provide an official Bill of Sale for livestock. If you buy or sell a horse in California, you will need to draft your own bill of sale.
If the vehicle has a legal owner/lienholder, then section 5 of the REG 227 needs to be notarized. If the registration does not show a legal owner/lienholder, notarization is not required.
States Not Requiring Notarization Most states, including California, Texas, and Florida, do not require notarization for a bill of sale to be valid. In California, a bill of sale serves as proof of ownership transfer without the need for notarization.
Under California law, every signer must personally appear before you at the time of the notarization. This means that you and the signer must both be physically present, face to face in the same room, when the notarization takes place.
Can I create my own California vehicle bill of sale? Yes, you can create your own bill of sale using a template or an online form. However, it's essential you include all required information and that both parties sign the document.
Signatures: Both the buyer and the seller should sign and print their names, acknowledging their agreement to the terms and conditions stated in the document. Notary public (optional): While not required in New York, notarization adds another layer of protection and validity to the document.
To find a notary, you can typically check at banks, law offices, government offices, and other official places. Some mobile notary services even offer on-the-go notarization. It's important to make sure that the notary you choose is authorized in your area since notary laws and regulations can vary.
Many states don't mandate notarization for bills of sale. States like California, Texas, Florida, Ohio, and New York allow transactions without a notarized document. In these states, a signed bill of sale is often sufficient for legal purposes, provided it includes all required information.
