FAQs When Selling Your Cars Privately in Kansas

Frequently Asked Questions

To transfer ownership, you must complete the "Assignment of Title" section on the back of your Certificate of Title. You need to:
Enter the buyer's full name and address.
Fill in the exact odometer reading.
Enter the purchase price and date of sale.
Sign and print your name exactly as it appears on the front of the title.
Do not use white-out or erase mistakes. Any alterations can void the title, requiring you to obtain a replacement before you can sell the car.

No. Unlike some neighboring states, Kansas does not require the seller's signature on the title to be notarized for a standard private party sale.

You cannot legally sell a vehicle without a title in Kansas. If yours is lost, stolen, or damaged, you must apply for a duplicate title using Form TR-720B (Application for Secured/Duplicate/Reissue Title). If there is a lien on the vehicle, you must pay off the loan first. The lender will then release the lien, allowing you to obtain a clear title to sign over to the buyer.

Generally, no. If the vehicle is already titled in Kansas, no inspection is required for a private sale to another Kansas resident. However, if you are selling a vehicle with an out-of-state title, the buyer will need to have a Kansas Highway Patrol Motor Vehicle Examination (MVE-1) completed before they can register it.

While the title is the primary transfer document, a Bill of Sale is highly recommended and often required. You should use the official Bill of Sale (Form TR-312). This document is essential if:
There is no space on the title to list the purchase price.
You plan to replace the sold vehicle and want to claim a sales tax rebate on the new purchase.
The buyer needs proof of purchase price for tax purposes.

No. Private sellers do not collect sales tax. The buyer is responsible for paying the state and local sales tax directly to the County Treasurer's office when they title and register the vehicle.

In Kansas, the license plates belong to the seller. You must remove your license plates from the vehicle before the buyer takes possession. Do not let the buyer drive away with your plates. You can transfer them to another vehicle you own or return them to the County Treasurer.
