Vehicle/ Vessel Bill of Sale
This form is used to gather necessary information when you sell your vehicle or vessel. Completing this form does
not transfer the title or act as a Report of Sale. To complete the transaction, the buyer and seller have the following
responsibilities:
Buyer: To apply for a new title in your name, take the Certificate of Ownership (Title) and this Bill of Sale to your
local vehicle licensing office and pay the required fees and taxes. You must apply within 15 days of acquiring the
vehicle/ vessel or you will be charged a late fee. Effective October 1, 2012, late transfer fees start at $50 and increase
to a maximum not to exceed $125. Note: This transfer may require an emissions test.
Seller: Submit a completed Report of Sale within 5 days from the date of sale. The Report of Sale releases your
liability from the vehicle or vessel. You can report the sale by filling out the Report of Sale section attached to the title,
in person at any vehicle licensing office, or online (vehicle only) at www.dol.wa.gov.
Depending on your specific situation, other forms may be necessary to complete the transfer of ownership. For more
information, contact customer service at (360) 902-3770. Forms are available online at www.dol.wa.gov or at any vehicle
licensing office.
