Odometer Disclosure Statement - State and federal laws mandates that the mileage of the sold automobile is disclosed. Vermont integrates the Odometer Disclosure Statement with the official Bill of Sale form, instead of having a different document or space to outline the mileage on a title document. The purchaser should inquire about the accuracy of the odometer reading; if it is not, the car will fail investigation.
Signature Requirement - Both the purchaser and the vendor have to sign the paperwork, however, notarization is not required.
A Vermont resident's car has to be documented with the state DMV before it can be operated on Vermont highways. Vermont, unlike several other states, does not stipulate how long a purchaser has to document a car after buying it, however, purchasers should try to do so as soon as feasible. Those who document their vehicles have to have them checked within fifteen days. If you bought your car from a merchant, the merchant will tender your titling and registration details on your behalf. If the purchaser and vendor are both private people or entities, the purchaser is responsible for registering the vehicle. One-year or two-year registration durations are available. Renewals can be completed virtually.
Initial registration has to be completed by mail or physically at a Vermont Department of Motor Vehi office convenient to the buyer.
