Georgia Bill of Sale Requirements
Georgia does not strictly require a separate bill of sale to title a vehicle, but one is strongly recommended as proof of the sale. Notarization is recommended but not required for a Georgia vehicle bill of sale. Georgia publishes an official form (Form T-7 (Bill of Sale)).
- Georgia's official form is the Department of Revenue Form T-7 (Bill of Sale), available for download on the DOR website (dor.georgia.gov/t-7-bill-sale).
- Notarization is NOT required on a Georgia vehicle bill of sale; the T-7 requires only the signatures of buyer and seller and has no notary block. (A notarized affidavit is required only in special court/public-sale title scenarios, not a casual private sale.)
- For titled vehicles (generally 1986 and newer), the properly assigned title—not a bill of sale—is the primary ownership document for titling; the bill of sale documents sale price for Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) and protects both parties.
- Per the DOR casual-sale page, a separate bill of sale is specifically required only for vehicles 1985 or older that do not require a title (submitted with Form T-22B); for newer titled vehicles it is recommended, not mandatory.
- Title and registration of a privately purchased vehicle must be completed at the county tag office within 7 days of the purchase date.
Federal law (49 CFR Part 580) requires the seller to disclose the odometer reading and the buyer to acknowledge it on transfer of ownership. Effective January 1, 2021, the disclosure period was extended from 10 to 20 years for model-year-2011-and-newer vehicles, so a vehicle is exempt once it is transferred 20 or more years after January 1 of its model year. Georgia's Form T-7 incorporates this disclosure and reflects that vehicles 20 model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure requirements.
