Van-specific legal information

Transfer notes

Van title transfers follow passenger vehicle rules unless the van exceeds 16,000 lbs GVWR, which triggers commercial vehicle classification and odometer exemption. Conversion vans may carry additional equipment disclosures.

Odometer disclosure

Passenger vans under 16,000 lbs GVWR and under 20 years old require federal odometer disclosure. Commercial vans rated above 16,000 lbs GVWR are exempt under 49 CFR 580.17(a).

Applicable federal law: 49 CFR Part 580 — Odometer Disclosure Requirements (exempt if GVWR exceeds 16,000 lbs)

Title and registration

Title should reflect the correct body type. Converted vans may need a weight certificate or FMVSS compliance letter if the body type was changed after manufacture.

Special disclosures

  • Conversion van modifications (raised roof, wheelchair lift, living quarters) should be documented on the bill of sale.
  • Commercial-use history may affect insurance classification for the buyer.
  • Cargo van to passenger van conversions must meet FMVSS safety standards to be registered for passenger use.
