What to do after selling your car

 

Selling your car involves:

  1. indicating ownership change on the title for the vehicle, the date of sale, the VIN number of the vehicle, and the odometer reading at the time of sale.
  2. signing the title, and receiving money (cash or money order).
  3. removing your license tag from the vehicle.
  4. sign a bill of sale if desired for your records.

After receiving the money for your car, deposit the cash into your bank.

Call your insurance company to notify them of the sale.

Call the tax assessor’s office to notify them of the sale.

Contact Arkansas Finance and Administration Office for liability disclaimer.

Before you put the “For Sale” sign in the window, check your state to see what is required to sell your car. The most common required documents are a bill of sale, also known as a vehicle transfer form and a release of liability.
