Florida Titles 

To transfer a Florida Title, the seller must complete the transfer information on the front of the current title, including the purchasers' name, the selling price, and the odometer reading at the time of sale. (A bill of sale may be submitted for proof of purchase price).

The purchaser is required to apply for title and registration using DHSMV for 82040. Sales tax will be collected if applicable. Title application and transfer fees range from $75.75 to $85.75 in price.

All transfers of ownership must be completed within 30 days of the date the vehicle is assigned by the seller or a $20.00 fee is levied at the time of transfer. Our office offers a fast title service for an additional $10.00 in which you can have the title printed at the time of transfer. 

Florida is an electronic title and lien state in which the title is maintained electronically in the DHSMV system during the term of the loan. Once the lien is satisfied the title can remain electronic or the title can be printed for $10.
