Free Idaho Vehicle Bill of Sale Template

Use our Idaho 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

An Idaho vehicle bill of sale is proof of the transaction between the vehicle’s previous owner and the vehicle’s new owner. In Idaho, you need a bill of sale both to transfer the title and to register your vehicle with the Idaho Transportation Department’s Motor Vehicle Division (DMV).

A bill of sale is also legal documentation that can be used if the ownership of the vehicle is in dispute.

Our template can guide you in writing your Idaho bill of sale for a vehicle.

Idaho Vehicle Registration

A new owner has up to 30 days after purchase to register the vehicle with the DMV. The vehicle owner must be an Idaho resident. If the owner is from out of state, they have 90 days to register their vehicle.

Vehicle registrations in Idaho must be renewed every year.

Where to Register Your Vehicle

Idaho vehicles must be registered with the Idaho Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Visit an Idaho DMV office to register your vehicle. Call ahead to see if you need an appointment.

Idaho’s DMV website states that you can renew your registration online and register a vehicle (initially) if it is purchased from an Idaho dealer.

Documents Required by the DMV Office

The following documents are needed to register your vehicle:

  • Application for Certificate of Title (Form ITD 3337)
  • Bill of sale
  • Odometer reading (for cars newer than 10 years and weighing under 16,000 pounds)
  • Proof of insurance (see a list of companies here)
  • Registration fees
  • Valid Idaho driver’s license
  • VIN inspection (for vehicles originating from out of state).

If someone registers the vehicle for you, be sure they have a power of attorney form.

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

An Idaho vehicle bill of sale is required to register your vehicle with the Idaho DMV.

Be aware that when a vehicle is sold, the seller must file a Release of Liability (Form ITD 3858) within five days of the transfer date. This releases the former owner from liability for bodily injury, death, or property damage arising from any accident occurring after vehicle transfer.

Also, you must ensure that the bill of sale information is correct. Entering false or fraudulent information on a bill of sale is a felony in Idaho.

Here’s how to create a valid bill of sale to register your vehicle in Idaho.

Step 1 – Refer to our template.

The template will reference everything you must include in a vehicle bill of sale in Idaho.

Step 2 – Vehicle Information

Provide the following:

  • Vehicle identification number (VIN)
  • Title number
  • Vehicle weight
  • Vehicle full length and width
  • Vehicle year
  • Vehicle make
  • Vehicle model
  • Description of vehicle
  • Vehicle brand (rebuilt salvage, previous brand, reconstruct, repair, or other, as applicable)
  • Odometer reading, without tenths. Are these actual miles or not? Are mechanical limits exceeded? Is disclosure exempt or inapplicable (lacks odometer)?

The Idaho DMV asks for a second VIN for mobile and manufactured homes.

Step 3 – Seller and Buyer’s Details

The next section contains information about the seller and buyer :

  • Seller’s full name (printed)
  • Seller’s physical address (street and number, city, state, and zip code)
  • Seller’s mailing address (if different from the physical address)
  • Daytime phone number
  • The true selling price of the vehicle
  • Sale date
  • Buyer’s full name (printed)
  • Buyer’s physical address (street and number, city, state, and zip code)
  • Buyer’s mailing address (if different from the physical address)
  • Daytime phone number

Step 4– Lienholder

This section provides the lienholder’s details, including name and address (street name and number, city, state, and zip code).

Step 5– Certification and Signature

The last section is where the seller and buyer certify the bill of sale and sign.

The signatures do not need a notary or witness.
