Do I need a bill of sale to transfer a title in Nevada?

Not legally for every transfer, but the DMV strongly recommends one. A bill of sale is required for gift transfers between non-family members and for any sale where the title is missing a sale price or signature date.

Can I transfer a title online in Nevada?

No. As of 2026, Nevada does not allow online title transfers between private parties. You must visit a DMV office or a licensed third-party agency in person.

What if the title is from another state?

You'll need a VIN inspection (form VP-015) before the DMV will accept the transfer. Bring the out-of-state title, current registration, and proof of insurance.

How long does it take to get the new title in the mail?

Standard Nevada DMV processing is 4–6 weeks. Expedited title service through a third-party agency can deliver the title via FedEx in 2–3 business days.
