Business sale — What You Need to Know

A business entity (LLC, corporation, partnership) is either the buyer or seller. The transaction requires proof of authority for the individual signing on behalf of the entity.

Seller guidance

If the business is selling, ensure the person signing the bill of sale has authority under the business's operating agreement, bylaws, or a board resolution. The title should be in the business's legal name. Provide the buyer with documentation of signatory authority (e.g., a certificate of incumbency or corporate resolution).

Buyer guidance

If buying on behalf of a business, confirm your authority to purchase in the business's organizational documents. The title should be issued in the business's legal name, and your EIN will be needed for the registration. If purchasing a vehicle from a business, verify the seller's representative has authority and that any prior UCC or tax liens on the vehicle are released.

Legal note

Contracts signed by an unauthorized representative of a business entity may be voidable under agency law and state corporation/LLC statutes. A business seller must ensure no UCC lien (Article 9 fixture filing) or federal/state tax lien is attached to the vehicle. Business vehicle sales may trigger additional tax reporting obligations (Form 4797 for depreciated business assets, potential sales tax on the entity's basis).
