Top The Basics

If you are buying or selling a vehicle in Connecticut, you need to make sure you have a proper bill of sale. If you are purchasing from a dealer, this shouldn't be a problem, because they are required to meet state standards. However, if you are buying from a private seller, you must ensure that your bill of sale is in compliance with state regulations. Completing the title transfer and obtaining a proper bill of sale is extremely important. If done incorrectly, you may encounter problems when trying to register your new vehicle.
