Nevada Vehicle Bill of Sale Form

Registering a Vehicle in Nevada

Before you move on to the registration requirements of your state, make sure you took all the steps to purchase a motor vehicle properly by looking through our full article.

After the certified date of purchase, buyers will have 30 days to complete registration of their new vehicle. If the motor vehicle is not certified within 30 days, it is subject to penalties and fees for improper operation on Nevada highways and roadways. For registration, buyers must gather documents and present them in person at any Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) that is to their convenience. Documents necessary for registration include:

• Application for Vehicle Registration (Form VP-222)
• Title and odometer reading that is signed by the previous owner
• Bill of sale including details of buyer, seller, and motor vehicle
• Current and valid driver’s License
• Proof of insurance
• Nevada Emission Vehicle Inspection Report (only in some cases)

In addition to all listed documentation, some fees are required to complete title registration, including a $1 technology fee and a $6 safety fee for motorcycles. Registration fees for passenger vehicles and motorcycles are $33 and travel trailers $27. Taxes are also due at the time of registration and are calculated based on the motor vehicle’s value at the time of purchase. The minimum amount of taxes for registration of a motor vehicle is $16.00, using the value of the car plus 35%. Nevada also takes depreciation into account, using that as part of their calculations in determining the final fee for taxes due at registration. Those who are veterans or disabled are exempt from taxes and therefore must show proof of all therefore mentioned cases.

If a motor vehicle is purchased outside of Nevada, buyers will have to prove their payment of taxes by a certified document. If not, taxes must be paid before the vehicle can be legally registered and driven in Nevada.
