What is the process for transferring vehicle ownership?

Asked a year ago
The process for transferring vehicle ownership in Missouri involves completing a bill of sale, signing over the title, paying the required fees, and submitting the necessary paperwork to the DMV/RMV. Both the seller and buyer must provide their information and signatures on the title, along with the odometer reading. The buyer needs to obtain insurance coverage before completing the transfer. In some cases, a safety inspection or emissions test may be required. Once all the documents and fees are submitted, the new owner will receive a new title with their name on it. It is important to follow all guidelines and requirements to ensure a successful transfer of ownership.
