To legally transfer ownership, the seller must sign the back of the Arizona Certificate of Title. Arizona law mandates that this signature must be notarized to be valid. Notary services are very limited in Kaibito itself. You will likely need to travel to Page or Tuba City to find a notary at a bank, MVD office, or authorized third-party provider.
Generally, no. Private party vehicle sales in Arizona are typically exempt from the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT), which is the state's equivalent of sales tax. This rule applies to casual sales between private individuals.
Although you are exempt from sales tax, you will be responsible for paying registration fees and the annual Vehicle License Tax (VLT) when you title the car in your name. The VLT is based on the vehicle's assessed value and is paid annually.
A lien means a lender still has a financial claim on the vehicle. You can check for liens for free on the AZ MVD Now website using the car's VIN. If a lien exists, the seller must provide you with a lien release document from the lender before you can get a clear title.
For a comprehensive overview of the car's past, consider getting a vehicle history report from KarKiosk. This is crucial for checking for accident history, potential salvage titles, or if the car was brought in from a neighboring state like Utah.
