Selling privately in Georgia
When you sell a vehicle, boat, trailer, or other titled property privately in Georgia, a completed bill of sale records the price, date, and the legal names of both parties. That is the documentation Georgia Department of Revenue relies on to process the title transfer. Georgia also requires an odometer disclosure for vehicle and motorcycle sales, which is built into every document.
Georgia does not require notarization, though either party can choose to notarize for added protection. After the sale, the buyer should complete the title transfer with Georgia Department of Revenue within 7 days of the sale. Keep your copy of the completed bill of sale as proof of the transaction.
Georgia-specific notes: Georgia uses Form T-7 for vehicle bills of sale. Vehicles 20+ model years old are exempt from odometer disclosure. Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) applies. Bill of sale must be submitted to the county tag office.
The buyer must register the vehicle within 7 days of purchase (casual sale, per GA DOR).
Federal law requires accurate odometer disclosure for vehicles less than 20 model years old.
