You and the buyer will need to know how to transfer a title in Arkansas before the new owner can start driving it. Read on to learn all you need to know to officially transfer ownership of the vehicle, releasing you from any liability regarding its operation in the future.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of 2018, the state of Arkansas officially launched a new website to handle the majority of car registration, title, and licensing tasks.\u00a0While the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfa.arkansas.gov\/motor-vehicle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">old website<\/a>\u00a0is still there, it has very little information.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions about transferring a title, you need to call 1-501-682-4692 or check out the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/mydmv.arkansas.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MyDMV\u00a0website<\/a>\u00a0for more information and contact info.<\/p>\n<h3>Buying or Selling a Car? What are the Title Transfer Requirements in Arkansas?<\/h3>\n<p>Even though you probably won&#8217;t be bringing your paperwork to the DMV office, all the old rules still apply.<\/p>\n<p>In order to get the title to transfer to the new owner you will need to following documents and information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Completed Arkansas title with the sellers and buyers names printed, signed and dated on all required areas<\/li>\n<li>Vehicle Identification Number<\/li>\n<li>Bill of sale<\/li>\n<li>Proof of insurance<\/li>\n<li>Federal odometer statement<\/li>\n<li>The driver&#8217;s license of the buyer and seller<\/li>\n<li>Funds to pay title transfer fees and any registration fees and taxes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Can You Transfer the Title Online in Arkansas?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can. Check out the new website\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mydmv.arkansas.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MyDMV<\/a> to get started.<\/p>\n<p>The computer interface will verify that the buyer&#8217;s insurance is valid, that the VIN is eligible to be registered, and record all the new information.\u00a0 If any part of the application is not recognized by the system, you will be sent to your local DMV office to complete the transfer.<\/p>\n<p>However, most people will be able to fill out the information and receive their new title, registration, and plates through the mail in just a couple weeks.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t Trust the Internet? Visit Your Local Revenue Office Instead<\/h3>\n<p>Not everybody is comfortable using the internet to enter personal or credit card information. The Arkansas DMV offices are still open for business.<\/p>\n<p>Use this easy\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfa.arkansas.gov\/office-locations\/revenue-offices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">office locator<\/a> to find a DMV that is near you. The offices are open Monday through Friday and from 8 o&#8217;clock in the morning until 5 PM.<\/p>\n<h3>Schedule A Title Transfer Appointment With The Arkansas DMV<\/h3>\n<p>Just because you want to speak to a real live\u00a0person to complete your title transfer, it doesn&#8217;t mean you have to wait in line.\u00a0Use the\u00a0MyDMV\u00a0web portal or call ahead to reserve your appointment.<\/p>\n<h3>Arkansas Title Transfer Fees<\/h3>\n<p>How much does it cost to transfer a car title in Arkansas?<\/p>\n<p>The fee to transfer the title is only $10. However, you will likely be paying sales tax, registration fees, and any other local taxes for your registration at the same time.\u00a0Use this <a href=\"https:\/\/airsdsmvpub.dfa.arkansas.gov\/mydmv\/_\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">title transfer fee calculator<\/a> to verify how much money you will need to pay the bill in full before you head to the DMV.<\/p>\n<h3>What Is The Difference Between My Car Title and Vehicle Registration?<\/h3>\n<p>The car title declares ownership of a unique vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>It records your name, address, date of birth, the VIN, make\/model, and year of your car. If you have a loan on the car, the title remains with the bank until you pay off the loan. If you own the car outright, you will keep the title filed in a safe and secure location. It is recommended to not keep your title the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>Your registration serves as proof that you have paid all current taxes and fees and carry the proper insurance to operate the vehicle in Arkansas. The registration is renewed periodically and remains in the car at all times.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, if you run into any more questions about how to transfer a title in Arkansas, give the DMV a call at 1 (501) 682-4692.<\/p>\n<h3>Arkansas DMV Hours And Contact Information<\/h3>\n<p>For more information on questions specific to your title transfer scenario, clarification on the title transfer process in the state of Arkansas, or for AR DMV hours and to find the DMV location nearest to you, visit the official Arkansas Department of Motor Vehicles website by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfa.arkansas.gov\/motor-vehicle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Common Questions About Arkansas Title Transfer<\/h4>\n<p>Are there any questions about transferring a car title that we didn&#8217;t cover?<\/p>\n<p>We are constantly updating our content and welcome your feedback.
