OBTAINING A TITLE FOR A NEW VEHICLE A certificate of title issued by the state of Texas is a document that proves legal ownership of a vehicle. A title must be obtained when an individual purchases a new vehicle. A title transfer must also be completed when a used vehicle is sold or gifted or when a vehicle changes hands as a result of the death of the vehicle s owner. For new vehicles the licensed dealer that sold the vehicle typically will accept and submit the required titling information and fees on behalf of the buyer.

Most states require a Vehicle Bill of Sale when buying or selling a car which is a document outlining the terms and conditions of the exchange between two independent parties. It includes the purchase price the VIN the model and year of the vehicle the warranty and odometer provisions the signed legal names and addresses of both the seller and the buyer and sometimes a notarized signature. The Vehicle Bill of Sale represents the transfer of the RIGHT to ownership. The vehicle s certificate of title represents ACTUAL ownership and is required in every state. The seller must provide a current odometer disclosure on the title at the time of sale and both the buyer and seller must sign and date the document.
