Documents used along the form

The California Form REG 262 is essential for transferring ownership of a vehicle or vessel. Several other documents often accompany this form to ensure a smooth transfer process. Below is a list of these documents, each with a brief description.

  • Title Certificate: This document proves ownership of the vehicle or vessel. It is required to complete the transfer process and must be submitted along with the REG 262 form.
  • Application for Duplicate Title: If the original title is lost or damaged, this application can be submitted to obtain a replacement title. It is necessary to have a valid title for the transfer.
  • Bill of Sale: This document serves as a receipt for the transaction. It includes details about the buyer, seller, purchase price, and date of sale. It is often included in the REG 262 form.
  • Odometer Disclosure Statement: This statement is required to confirm the vehicle's mileage at the time of sale. It prevents fraud and ensures accurate reporting of mileage.
  • Power of Attorney: This document allows one person to act on behalf of another in the transfer process. It is useful if the seller cannot be present to sign the necessary documents.
  • Car Buyer’s Bill of Rights: This document outlines the rights of the buyer when purchasing a vehicle in California. It is important for buyers to understand their rights before signing any agreements.
  • NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT: To safeguard proprietary information, refer to our detailed Non-disclosure Agreement form options for proper legal protection.
  • Notice of Release of Liability: This form notifies the DMV that the seller is no longer responsible for the vehicle after the sale. It protects the seller from future liabilities related to the vehicle.

Having these documents ready can facilitate a smoother transaction. It is important to ensure that all forms are filled out accurately and completely to avoid delays in the transfer process.
