Bill of Sale Requirements in Georgia

Bill of Sale in GA

When you purchase a new or used vehicle, be sure to get a bill of sale. It's a handy document serving as a receipt of the sale for your records of tax purposes, and protects the seller in the event that the buyer does not register the vehicle or later abandons it. While GA does not require a bill of sale for official purposes, the Georgia Motor Vehicle Division offers an online, printable Bill of Sale (Form T-7) for your convenience.
