Page OverviewTop The Basics
Regarding motor vehicles, a bill of sale is a form that shows the ownership transfer of a vehicle from one person to another.
The South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) requires an original Bill of Sale when you register and tag your vehicles.
Buying a Used Car? Order a Vehicle History Report First
Ordering a vehicle history report is a critical step in the used car buying process. Failing to do so could result in the purchase of a vehicle with frame, flood, or fire damage, odometer rollback and more. Stay on the safe side, and order a vehicle history report before you buy a used vehicle.
