How Do I …
Sell a Car?
I sold my car, what do I do now? To sell a vehicle, the owner must transfer ownership on the title AND cancel registration of the vehicle.
Titles
Transfer Ownership

- A copy of the transfer of ownership, including the title and any bill of sales for your records.
- The vehicles license plates/tags. These do not transfer with the vehicle to the new owner.
