USA title/bill of sale
« on: October 23, 2010, 06:56:30 pm »
I'm in the states at the moment and about to export a few toys, when I buy a car do the title papers have to be in my name or are they just to be signed by the previous owner.

 Also is the bill of sale just a receipt scribbled out by the seller with the vin/date/purchase price?  Thanks in advance.

Zudoo  ...  Get the title filled out  by the previous owner and a reciept.  Make a copy so that you can use it to apply for your import papers, the original usually goes with the car.

Make sure there are no liens on the car (that will be written on the title) that means money owed to a finance company.

Bill of sale must have the sellers name and address as with yours, purchase price, date and VIN number

Dont write the Bill of sale for a lower amount to save on taxes.....it will bite you in the bum later...but thats your call

Scan the title in Colour (both sides). Title gets sent to the shipping company....you dont get too keep it

Need any help with the Import approval, email me at matt@shermatt.com and I will help you out or you can call 727 364 8707 (Florida) and I can help over the phone.

Cheers

Matt

Thanks for the responses. I have also been told by the shipping company that the seller needs an EIN number and has to fill out a declaration to allow the items to leave the US. Any one else struck this? Thanks for your offer to contact you Shermatt, I might take you up on that.

EIN number stands for export identification number, a shipping company I was going to use said I could not export my items if the sellers did not supply this number. Spoke to Matt, he put me onto Joey from Schumachers and all is good now, thanks again Matt, hope your weekend went well.
