California Vehicle Bill of Sale Requirements

California requires a bill of sale for all private vehicle transactions. No notarization is needed, but the document must include odometer disclosure and be submitted alongside the title transfer to the DMV.

Notarization

No notarization is needed. Both parties sign the document and it is legally valid.

Official Form

California does not require a specific official form. A properly formatted bill of sale that includes all required information is accepted.

Odometer Disclosure

Odometer disclosure is integrated into the bill of sale. Federal law requires accurate mileage reporting for vehicles less than 25 years old.

Special Notes

Bill of sale required for registration. No notarization needed.
