Selling, Donating, and Inheriting Motor Vehicles in Oregon

Selling a car, motorcycle, or other titled motor vehicle in Oregon?

Start with the Selling, Donating or Gifting a Vehicle page at the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) if you sell, donate, or have inherited a vehicle. It can save you a lot of time and aggravation.

They even have a Vehicle Bill of Sale you can fill in online, save, or print out.

Among other important information at the webpage:

“Important: You must notify DMV that you have sold a vehicle within 10 days of the sale. This information will be noted on the vehicle record, but the name(s) on DMV records cannot change until the title is submitted for transfer. Oregon Revised Statutes 803.112 to ORS 803.117, and Oregon Administrative Rule 735-020-0080 provide further information on your responsibilities.”
