  • Current Certificate of Title: Must be assigned before a notary with any lien properly released.
  • Odometer Disclosure Statement: Required if the vehicle is not exempt and the back of the title does not include an odometer disclosure
  • Photo Identification
  • Proof of Liability Insurance Coverage
  • UCC-1 Financing Statement or Other Security Agreement: Required if a lien will be recorded.
  • Vehicle Application Form (DPSMV 1799)
