Arlington Salvage title rv printable — when to file

California requires title transfer within 10 days of the sale date on the bill of sale. For salvage title transactions specifically, file at California DMV – Arlington (Visit https://www.dmv.ca.gov to find the nearest Arlington office) during normal hours: Mon–Fri 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (verify hours with local office). California CA does not require notarization of the bill of sale, but the title transfer (REG 262) must be signed by both parties. Miss the 10-day window and California typically charges a late-transfer penalty plus accrued use tax, and the seller can remain on the title for civil liability until the buyer completes retitling. Bring the signed title, the completed Arlington bill of sale, your government-issued ID, and payment for the $23.00 title transfer fee plus 7.25% sales tax on the purchase price.

Printable reminder. Whether you keep your printable as a printed two-copy paper record, both buyer and seller should leave the signing with an identical executed copy. The buyer needs the original to present at California DMV – Arlington; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
