Georgia Car Title Transfer Guide
Signing, forms, notarization and seller protection in Georgia.
In Georgia, vehicles model year 1986 and newer need a title to sell. Sign the back of the title exactly as your name appears on the front, and give the buyer a bill of sale (Form T-7 is the state template). Georgia buyers pay TAVT instead of sales tax when they register.

Before you sell in Georgia
- Find the title and make sure the name on it matches your ID.
- Remove plates and personal items before pickup.
- Never sign a blank title — fill in the buyer exactly as instructed at pickup.
The steps
- Get your documents together. Locate the title; the name on it must match your ID. Order a duplicate first if it is lost.
- Sign at pickup, not before. Complete the seller assignment when the buyer is present and payment is ready — never sign a blank title.
- File the state seller step. Complete the notification or form your state provides so liability for the car ends with the sale.
