A Wyoming vehicle bill of sale is a legal document that records the transfer of ownership of a motor vehicle from one party to another. This document serves as proof of the transaction when interacting with the Wyoming Department of Transportation.
For sellers, it provides a clear record of the sale, which is useful for tax purposes and liability protection. For buyers, it demonstrates proof of ownership. This is essential for registering the vehicle with the WyDOT (the DMV) and for the title transfer process.
