Divorce transfer — What You Need to Know
A vehicle is transferred between spouses as part of a divorce settlement or court order. The transfer may be directed by a divorce decree, marital settlement agreement, or qualified domestic relations order, and typically requires specific documentation beyond a standard bill of sale.
Seller guidance
If you are transferring the vehicle per a divorce decree, provide the buyer (your spouse) with a copy of the court order or settlement agreement, the signed title assignment, and a bill of sale showing $0 or the agreed consideration. Many states require a signed title plus a copy of the divorce decree to waive transfer fees or sales tax on court-ordered transfers. Consult your family law attorney before signing anything.
Buyer guidance
You will generally need the signed title, a copy of the divorce decree or marital settlement agreement, and a bill of sale to register the vehicle in your name. Many states exempt court-ordered spousal transfers from sales tax — bring documentation to the DMV. If the vehicle has a lien, the lienholder must release the lien or refinance the loan in your name before the title can be fully transferred to you.
Legal note
Vehicle transfers pursuant to divorce are governed by state domestic relations law and motor vehicle transfer statutes. Under IRC § 1041, transfers of property between spouses incident to divorce are generally not taxable events for federal income tax purposes. Most states waive sales tax on court-ordered transfers (e.g., California Revenue and Taxation Code § 6285; Texas Tax Code § 152.025). If the vehicle is jointly titled, both parties must sign the title assignment unless the court order vests sole ownership in one party.
