Always look at the original title before you pay the seller. Check that the seller's name exactly matches the name printed on the front of the title. Ask to see their driver's license to confirm their identity. If the title lists a bank or lender, the seller must give you a signed lien release. You cannot register the car in your name without this official release document.
You should document the sale using an official bill of sale to protect both parties. We highly recommend filling out the Georgia Department of Revenue Form T-7. Both you and the seller must sign and date this form. Keep the completed document safe, because the county tag office needs it to process your registration.
You do not pay traditional sales tax on a private party car sale in Georgia. Instead, you pay a Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT). This tax generally equals 7% of the vehicle's state-determined fair market value, rather than your actual payment price. You pay this tax directly to the Cook County Tax Commissioner when applying for your title. You will also pay an $18 title transfer fee and a $20 license plate fee.
You must visit the Cook County Tax Commissioner's office to handle your title and registration. The main office is located right down the road in the county seat of Adel. Check the county website for their current operating hours before you make the trip.
Always ask the seller for the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) before you meet up. Run the VIN through a reputable vehicle history report service to check for past accidents, flood damage, or a salvage brand on the title.
