Failure to title within the 30 days results in an automatic $25 penalty, plus another $25 for each month the title is late. There are no waivers for these penalties, which means the (YOUR COUNTY) county tax office and the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles cannot reduce or forgive what you may owe.
If you have bought a vehicle from a Texas dealer and you are a Texas resident, the dealership will transfer the title at the tax office on your behalf. However, if you have purchased a vehicle from an individual, the documents must be submitted to the tax office in person or by mail.
You may submit a Vehicle Transfer Notification online at to expedite processing. Please do not submit a Vehicle Transfer Notification both online and by mail.
Penalties: If transfer does not take place within 30 calendar days of the date of sale, penalties will accrue. There will be a $25 per month penalty, not to exceed $250 and up to 10% penalty on sales tax.
