Odometer disclosure. Federal law (49 U.S.C. §32705) requires the seller to state the mileage upon transfer of ownership. The seller certifies, to the best of their knowledge:

  • [ X ]The reading above reflects the actual mileage.
  • [ ]The reading is in excess of mechanical limits.
  • [ ]Warning — odometer discrepancy: the reading is not the actual mileage.
  • [ ]The vehicle is exempt from federal odometer disclosure (model year more than 20 years old, or otherwise exempt).

Before you sign

Print two copies and sign in front of the buyer. Both parties keep an original. Don't pre-sign — pre-signed forms are how lemons get switched between meeting time and sale time.

For the legal background — which states require a bill of sale, which require notarization, and what each line means — read the full Car Bill of Sale guide. Pre-1981 vehicles without a 17-character VIN should use the blank template on that page instead.
