As a business and legal template writer with over 12 years of experience drafting documents for private party vehicle sales across all 50 states, I’ve helped thousands of Wyoming residents complete clean, legally recognized title transfers without paying expensive notary or attorney fees. Today, I’m giving you my battle-tested, completely free Wyoming vehicle bill of sale template that meets all current Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) and IRS requirements.
This customizable legal form is perfect for cars, trucks, motorcycles, trailers, RVs, ATVs, snowmobiles, and boats sold privately in Cheyenne, Casper, Laramie, Gillette, Rock Springs, or anywhere in the Cowboy State.
A vehicle bill of sale in Wyoming is a legal document that records the transfer of ownership of a motor vehicle from the seller to the buyer. While Wyoming is one of the few states that does not make a bill of sale strictly mandatory for title transfer at the county treasurer’s office, having one is still critically important for three reasons:
In my experience reviewing hundreds of WYDOT title applications, county treasurers almost always ask for a bill of sale when the purchase price on the title is left blank or appears suspiciously low.

According to Wyoming Statute § 31-2-103 and WYDOT guidelines, your bill of sale must include:
| Required Field | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Full legal names and addresses of buyer and seller | Establishes parties to the contract |
| Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) | Unique identifier – must match title exactly |
| Year, Make, Model, Body Style, Color | Accurate vehicle description |
| Odometer reading (exact mileage) | Federal odometer disclosure required (49 U.S.C. § 32705) |
| Sale price (cannot be $0 or “gift” unless truly no money changed hands) | Determines 6% Wyoming sales/use tax |
| Date of sale | Starts buyer’s 60-day registration clock |
| Signatures of both buyer and seller | Makes document legally binding |
| Notarization (optional but recommended) | Adds extra legal protection in disputes |
In my decade-plus reviewing rejected Wyoming title applications, these are the top errors:
Wyoming imposes a 6% state sales/use tax in most counties (Teton County is 7% with local add-ons). The buyer has 60 days from the date of sale to title and register the vehicle or face late fees.

No. Wyoming is one of the few states that does not require notarization of a private party vehicle bill of sale. However, I always recommend it when the vehicle is worth more than $10,000 or if either party seems untrustworthy.
The same free Wyoming vehicle bill of sale template works perfectly for:
Simply change “Vehicle” to “Trailer,” “Motorcycle,” or “Watercraft” in the description section.

Can I use a handwritten bill of sale in Wyoming?
Yes. As long as it contains all required information, a clean handwritten bill of sale on notebook paper is legally valid.
Do I need a bill of sale if I’m gifting a vehicle to family?
Yes. Write $0 and check the “gift” box on the title, but still complete a bill of sale stating “Gift – No Monetary Consideration” for tax exemption proof.
What if the Wyoming title is lost?
The seller must apply for a duplicate title at their county treasurer before selling.
