- Bill of Sale (Form 10009): Only required when the Assignment of Title or Dealer Assignment is not completed on the back of the title.
- Certificate of Title: The current outstanding title must be signed by the former owner, and no copies are accepted.
- Odometer Statement: The buyer and seller must agree on the odometer reading. This may be shown on the title, a bill of sale, an odometer disclosure statement, or the application form.
- Proof of Identity
- Proof of Insurance: New Mexico requires minimum liability coverage of:
- $25,000 for bodily injury or death of one person
- $50,000 for bodily injury or death of two or more persons
- $10,000 for property damage in any one accident.
- Proofs of New Mexico Residency: Two are required.

To carry a handgun will necessitate a Concealed Handgun License, available upon application with the following:
