Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs about Cars for Sale by Owner

How do I properly handle the title transfer in Georgia? toggle

When buying a car from a private seller in Georgia, you must obtain the original Certificate of Title. The seller needs to sign the "Assignment of Title" section on the back, including the date of sale and the current odometer reading. Ensure the seller’s name matches the name printed on the front of the title. If there are multiple owners listed with "AND," all owners must sign.

What is TAVT and how does it replace sales tax? toggle

Georgia does not charge traditional sales tax on private vehicle purchases. Instead, you must pay a Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) when you title the vehicle. The TAVT rate is currently 6.6% of the vehicle’s fair market value (as determined by the state), not necessarily the price you paid for the car. You can estimate this cost using the TAVT estimator on the Georgia Department of Revenue website.

Are vehicle inspections required in Georgia? toggle

Georgia does not require a safety inspection. However, if you are registering the vehicle in one of the 13 metro Atlanta counties (Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding, or Rockdale), an emissions inspection is required for most vehicles aged 3 to 24 years. The seller is required to provide a vehicle with a valid passing emissions inspection at the time of sale.

Is a bill of sale required for a private car sale in Georgia? toggle

Yes, a bill of sale is required. You should use the official Form T-7 (Bill of Sale). This document protects both parties and must include the vehicle's year, make, model, and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), the final purchase price, the date of sale, and the names and signatures of both the buyer and seller.

Can I drive the car home with the seller's license plate? toggle

No. In Georgia, license plates stay with the seller, not the car. The seller must remove their plate before you take possession. You cannot legally drive the car until you have registered it, though you have a 7-day grace period to register the vehicle after purchase. During those 7 days, you must carry the Bill of Sale and signed title as proof of purchase if you are stopped by law enforcement.
