How to Sign a Vehicle Title in Alabama: Step-by-Step Guide

Title Transfer for Sellers/Registered Owners

Enter the date in the provided space.

Print the buyer's full name and address clearly in the designated areas.

Record the odometer reading in the specified area (omit if the vehicle is over ten years old). Do not include tenths.

The buyer should sign and print their name(s) as indicated.

Sellers must print and sign their name(s) exactly as it appears on the front of the title.

Indicate "NONE" in the lienholder section if applicable.

Retain your license plates.

Create a Bill of Sale including necessary vehicle details and personal information of both parties. Both should sign this document.
