For private sale transactions specifically, file at Nebraska DMV – Cave Spring (Visit https://dmv.nebraska.gov to find the nearest Cave Spring office) during normal hours: Mon–Fri 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (verify hours with local office). Miss the 30-day window and Nebraska 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 Cave Spring bill of sale, your government-issued ID, and payment for the $10.00 title transfer fee plus 5.5% 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 Nebraska DMV – Cave Spring; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
