To legally transfer ownership, the seller must sign the back of the original Georgia Certificate of Title in the designated "Seller" section. You will take this signed document directly to the Carroll County Tax Commissioner's office in Carrollton to finish the transfer process and put the car in your name.
Always prioritize your safety by meeting in a public, well-lit area during daylight hours. Excellent options include:
1. The public parking lot of the Carrollton Police Department or the Carroll County Sheriff's Office.
2. A busy commercial parking lot along the Highway 27 corridor or near the University of West Georgia campus.
3. A local bank parking lot, which also provides a secure place to withdraw cash or obtain a cashier's check.
Carefully inspect the title document before handing over any money. Ask to see the seller’s government-issued ID and ensure the name matches the printed title perfectly. You must also verify that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) printed on the title perfectly matches the physical VIN on the car’s dashboard and driver-side door jamb.
We recommend getting a complete vehicle history report from a trusted online service. This step is vital for checking past accidents, verifying the true mileage, and making sure the vehicle does not hide a salvage or rebuilt title status.
No. Georgia does not require a notary to witness the seller's signature on a state title for a standard private sale. However, the exact person whose name is on the title must be the one to sign it. If the current title shows two owners joined by the word "AND," both people must sign. If the word "OR" joins the names, only one seller needs to sign.
If the seller cannot locate the original title, they must apply for a replacement title (Form MV-1) from the Georgia Department of Revenue before they can legally sell the vehicle. Do not exchange money for a car without receiving a properly signed, original title in your hand.
