Gift transfer — What You Need to Know
The vehicle is transferred to the recipient with no monetary consideration. Gift transfers often have special tax implications and may require notarization depending on the state.
Seller guidance
If the vehicle's fair market value exceeds the annual gift tax exclusion ($18,000 for 2024 per IRS), the donor must file IRS Form 709 (United States Gift and Generation-Skipping Transfer Tax Return). The lifetime exemption ($13.61 million in 2024) typically means no tax is owed, but the form is still required. Some states require the word "gift" on the title or a separate gift affidavit to waive use tax.
Buyer guidance
You will likely owe use tax on the fair market value of the vehicle at registration unless your state exempts immediate family gifts. California, for example, exempts transfers between parents, children, spouses, and domestic partners. Check your state DMV for exemption eligibility.
Legal note (Georgia-specific)
Georgia imposes a Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) even on gift transfers. The TAVT rate is reduced to 0.5% of the fair market value for immediate family gifts (spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, grandchild). Standard TAVT is 7%. Complete MV-1 (Motor Vehicle Title/Tag Application) and Form PT-472 (Affidavit to Certify Immediate Family Relationship).
Gift transfer checklist
Establish fair market value (Kelley Blue Book or comparable)

Notarize the bill of sale or gift affidavit if your state requires it

Miss the 30-day window and Georgia 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.
