Bill of Sale New York

In New York, the bill of sale, officially known as form MV 912, acts as a formal receipt that validates the transfer of ownership for vehicles, boats and snowmobiles. While the certificate of titles is the primary legal document for most ownership changes, the New York DMV requires a bill of sale or almost every registration to verify the purchase price and calculate sales tax. If you are buying a vehicle older than 1973, which New York considers to have no titles, the bill of sale New York becomes the most important piece of evidence to prove you are the new owner.
