County Clerk

To transfer the title of a previously-owned vehicle which is currently titled in the state of Wyoming, you will need the following:

• Original Wyoming title signed by all parties whose names appear on the title. All parties must sign in front of a notary. Even if the names on the title appear as John OR Jane Doe, both parties must sign as seller`s on the title and have their signatures notarized. Any liens which appear on the front of the title must be properly released by a deputy county clerk OR you must be provided with a lien release or termination statement from the lien holder.

• The odometer disclosure on the title must be properly completed or a separate odometer disclosure statement must be presented. Check the odometer information on the title. It must conform to federal standards by reading as follows: I hereby state that the odometer now reads (no tenths) and to the best of my knowledge reflects the actual mileage of the vehicle . . . If the statement does not include the (no tenths), a separate statement is required. This is not necessary if the model year is more than 10 years old.

• A damage disclosure statement which informs the buyer whether or not the vehicle has sustained damage in excess of $7,500 in any single occurrence due to collision, flood, weather, fire, or vandalism. This is not necessary if the model year is more than 10 years old.

• If the vehicle is purchased from a dealer, you must have a Wyoming Sales/Use tax form and present it with the above documents. This is not required if the vehicle was purchased from an individual. If purchased from a dealer, you may also be provided with a Dealer Reassignment Form which the dealer may have you sign and have your signature notarized.

• If purchased from a dealer, you will need the dealer`s purchase invoice and proof of insurance to obtain or transfer license plates. If purchased from an individual, you will need a bill of sale and, while not required, it is a good idea to have the seller`s signature on the bill of sale notarized.

• If purchased from an individual or not provided with a Wyoming Dealer`s Reassignment Form, at least one of the buyer`s must sign the purchaser`s application and have their signature notarized. This can be done in our office and a deputy clerk will provide the notary service, but you must present a driver`s license or other form of identification at that time.
