Florida car sale requirements
Florida uses its own Vehicle/Vessel Bill of Sale form (HSMV 82050) for private party vehicle sales. While not legally required for all transactions, the Florida DHSMV recommends using this form to document the sale. Florida does not require notarization for a standard vehicle bill of sale. The buyer must title and register the vehicle within 30 days of the purchase date at a local Florida DHSMV service center. Florida also requires an odometer disclosure for vehicles under 10 years old. The bill of sale should include the VIN, year, make, model, mileage, sale price, and both parties' information.
