Free Hawaii Vehicle Bill of Sale Template

Use our Hawaii Vehicle Bill of Sale to record the sale of a vehicle and protect both buyer and seller.

Updated March 17, 2023 | Legally reviewed by Brooke Davis

A Hawaii vehicle bill of sale comes in handy when you want to purchase a vehicle or simply receive a hand-me-down used car from a family member.

You should not leave the transaction without a Hawaii vehicle bill of sale, as you may need it at the DMV in order to register your vehicle so you can start driving your new car and claim it as your own.

Hawaii Vehicle Registration

Hawaii law dictates that drivers must register their vehicles within 30 days of purchase. If you are late to do so, you could end up paying a $50 fine as well as delinquent taxes.

If you buy your car from a dealership, they will fill out the paperwork to register the car for you. However, if you purchase the car in an individual sale, you will need to take different steps.

Where to Register Your Vehicle

You can register your vehicle with the county DMV. This is also where you can renew your vehicle registration, which you need to do every year. For renewals, you can also use DMV kiosks located within some Safeway and Foodland stores.

Documents Required by the DMV Office

In order to register your vehicle with the DMV, you will need to bring these documents:

  • Vehicle bill of sale
  • Vehicle title, signed by both the buyer and seller
  • Lien release from the seller, if a lien was collected
  • Previous owner’s vehicle registration
  • Safety inspection report
  • Application for registration form
  • $5 registration fee

How to Write a Bill of Sale for a Car in Hawaii

Your Hawaii vehicle bill of sale is a short document that lists the following:

  • Vehicle information such as make, model, year, odometer, and VIN, along with the selling price or value
  • Names and addresses of both the buyer and seller
  • Date of sale
  • Signatures from the buyer and seller and a notary public seal

Fortunately, these are short legal forms and easy to draft yourself if you plan to sell your vehicle. You can create a Hawaii vehicle bill of sale in four steps.

Step 1 – Download a Free Template

Legal Templates offers free templates for vehicle bills of sale across the country, including Hawaii. All you’ll have to do is answer a few questions.

Step 2 – Fill Out the Bill of Sale Template

Enter the vehicle information, the buyer’s name and address, and the seller’s name and address. Make sure the seller’s information matches what’s on the vehicle title and the seller’s ID. There will also be a space for the notary and for everyone’s signatures.

Step 3 – Confirm the Buyer’s Information and Sign

Before signing, make sure that you have correctly input the buyer’s information on the vehicle bill of sale. Once that’s done, you can sign your bill of sale form.

Step 4 – Make Two Copies

You will need to hold on to the original vehicle bill of sale. Give two copies to the buyer, one of which they will provide to the DMV and one of which they will keep.

Have more questions about a vehicle bill of sale in Hawaii? Here are the questions we get most often.

Is a vehicle bill of sale required in Hawaii?

A vehicle bill of sale is not required in Hawaii unless the owner’s name is not on the title of the vehicle in Honolulu county. This form is also known as CS-L(MVR)40 and it is required in order to acquire a vehicle title in the new owner’s name.

What paperwork do I need to sell my car privately in Hawaii?

In order to sell your car privately in Hawaii, you will need to provide the owner with an endorsed certification of title, a current certificate of registration, and a certificate of safety inspection. You will also need to fill out a Notice of Transfer form, which you will need to mail to the county DMV within 10 days.
