Let's look at all the documents to sell your car in this Article.

Proof of ownership and registration

• The registration certificate indicates that you own a vehicle you are selling.

• You must show documents that you are the owner of the vehicle.

• At a minimum, you must present your driver's license or some photo identification (such as a passport) with your name matching the name on the registration form.

Ownership Transfer Form 

Although the driver's license is transferred online, there are times when a paper copy is required or desirable. These documents are available at the local office of the state registrar or can be downloaded from the registrar's website. It is your duty as a seller to inform the registration authority that you are the owner of the vehicle and now you’re selling a car to the new owner and provide them contact information and residential address, not the PO Box number, to complete the notice (or complete the contact details online). So ask to see the buyer’s driver's license and double-check the validity. You can notify the registration authority on the day the car is handed over to the new owner if you have this information to hand. If you don't, you could end up fighting the loss of demerits for someone speeding in speed cameras up to 14 days after the car is no longer yours. What's worse, you will be forced to pay a penalty.

Create a receipt

If the buyer offers you more than $75 for your car, you must provide a receipt to prove that the buyer gave you the agreed amount to sell the car. In this receipt, these things should be mentioned:-

• Buyer’s name

• Seller’s name

• On the day of the transaction

• The purchase price

• The details of the car

Make, model, colour, registration (if applicable) and VIN must be included in the Vehicle Identification Number. You should have a photocopy (or take a photo of) the receipt for your records. Although the registration authorities do not require you or the seller to make a copy of the permit, the seller will expect one, especially if cash is paid.

Roadworthiness certificate

Keep RWC somewhere in a safe and dry place out of the reach of the family dog, but most importantly, in a place, you remember to check if you need to. It is one of the necessary documents.

Accessories, Vehicle owner manual and service logbook

The owner's manual, service manual ( 'logbook') and accessories - like audio systems or other accessories, roadside assistance information and local market specs- should be kept in the glove compartment. If your owner's manual is damaged, it can be replaced by purchasing a new one from your local dealer's parts office. If the service information is available, the dealers can recreate it.

Documents about the vehicle being recalled.

Some cars are recalled for other safety issues, so make sure the seller has fixed serious safety issues before selling the car. Also, be sure to keep your documents in order when selling a car.

In short, below are the documents for selling your car

• A valid registration form (photocopies)
