If you are buying or selling a car in Nevada, you need to transfer the title to the new owner. The title is a legal document that proves the ownership of the vehicle. Transferring the title is a simple process that involves filling out some forms and paying some fees. Here are the steps you need to follow to transfer your car title in Nevada.
Step 1: Get the Title from the Seller
The first step is to get the title from the seller. The seller should sign and date the title in front of a notary public or an authorized DMV representative. The seller should also fill out the odometer disclosure statement on the title or a separate form. The seller should give you the title and the odometer statement, along with any other documents required by the DMV, such as a lien release, a smog certificate, or an emissions waiver.
Step 2: Complete the Application for Vehicle Registration
The next step is to complete the Application for Vehicle Registration (Form VP-222). This form requires you to provide information about yourself, the vehicle, and the insurance. You can download the form from the DMV website or get it from any DMV office. You need to sign the form and have it notarized or certified by a DMV representative.
Step 3: Pay the Fees and Taxes
The third step is to pay the fees and taxes for the title transfer. The fees and taxes vary depending on the type, age, and value of the vehicle. You can use the online fee estimator on the DMV website to calculate the amount you need to pay (this link). You can pay the fees and taxes by cash, check, money order, or credit card at any DMV office.
Step 4: Submit the Documents to the DMV
The fourth step is to submit the documents to the DMV. You can do this in person, by mail, or online. You need to submit the following documents:
- The signed and notarized title
- The odometer disclosure statement
- The Application for Vehicle Registration (Form VP-222)
- The proof of insurance
- The proof of identity
- The proof of Nevada residency
- The payment receipt for the fees and taxes
- Any other documents required by the DMV, such as a lien release, a smog certificate, or an emissions waiver
If you submit the documents in person, you can get your new title and registration on the spot.
Step 5: Get New License Plates and Stickers
The final step is to get new license plates and stickers for your vehicle. You can choose from a variety of standard and specialty plates on the DMV website. You can also transfer your existing plates from another vehicle or keep the plates from the seller if they agree. You need to pay a late fee and a decal fee for the new plates and stickers.
