To transfer ownership, you must complete the "Assignment of Certificate of Title" section on the back of your title. You need to:
Enter the buyer's full legal name and address.
Fill in the exact odometer reading (without tenths of a mile).
Enter the date of the sale and the final purchase price.
Sign and print your name exactly as it appears on the front of the title.
Do not use white-out or make any corrections, as this can void the title. If a mistake is made, you will need to apply for a duplicate title.
You cannot sell a vehicle without a title. If your title is lost or destroyed, you must apply for a duplicate title from the DMV before you can complete the sale. If you have an outstanding loan on the car, you must pay it off in full. The lender will then release the lien, allowing you to obtain a clear title to sign over to the buyer.
Yes. A Bill of Sale is required for a private vehicle sale in Delaware. The back of the Delaware title has a section that functions as a Bill of Sale, which must be completed. This section needs to include:
The vehicle's year, make, and VIN.
The purchase price and date of sale.
The full names, addresses, and signatures of both the seller and the buyer.
The buyer will need this completed document to register the vehicle. Both parties should keep a copy for their records.
No. In Delaware, private sellers do not collect sales tax. Instead, the buyer is responsible for paying a one-time "Document Fee" (vehicle transfer tax) when they title and register the vehicle. This fee is 4.25% of the purchase price or the NADA clean trade-in value, whichever is greater.
No. In Delaware, the seller is not required to have the vehicle inspected before a private sale. The responsibility for passing a safety and emissions inspection falls on the buyer. The buyer must have the vehicle inspected at a DMV inspection lane before they can complete the titling and registration process.
In Delaware, the license plates belong to the seller, not the car. You must remove your license plates from the vehicle before the buyer takes possession. You can then transfer the plates to another vehicle you own or return them to a DMV location to cancel the registration. Never let a buyer drive away with your plates.
Always prioritize your safety. Arrange to meet in a public, well-lit, and busy location. The parking lot of a police station, a bank, or a major retail center are all excellent choices. Never invite a stranger to your home. When a buyer wants a test drive, check their driver's license and always accompany them.
