What to bring

  • properly assigned title or prior ownership documents
  • buyer and seller identity details
  • Vermont tax, lien, or odometer paperwork when the state requires it
  • payment for Vermont title and registration transfer fees

Likely next steps

  1. Start with Vermont's title-transfer path instead of a normal renewal.
  2. Bring the assigned title, ownership details, and any lien or tax paperwork the motor vehicle office requires.
  3. Complete the transfer first so future renewal happens on the correct Vermont record.
