I want to give my daughter in FL my car how does she transfer my MI title to FL does she do that here or there

Question

How much do I have to put on the title that I sold it for and does she have to change it over here? or in Florida? I am under the impression that she has to pay florida taxes in florida not here.

Answer 1

If you gave it to her, you put $0 on the title and give her a bill of sale showing it as a family gift.

There would be no sales tax then.

She would take the signed and notarized title to Florida with her bill of sale. The transfer is handled in Florida.

Answer 2

All you have to do is sign the title over to her. Write her name and address on the back of the title and you sign it.

Now not sure if Florida is like South Carolina where you have to pay a tax on the vehicle each year. Depending on the year, make, model and mileage.

If taxes are due on the vehicle your daughter will pay them in the STATE OF FLORIDA when she gets the car down there and goes to register it.


good luck!

Answer 3

That depends on who's driving it to Florida you or her
if she comes & gets it you can go to the DMV in your state, with her, sign the title, and buy a "drive away sticker"
I believe that's about $11. That gives her 10 days to drive to Florida & get it registered
I would , if I were you , also write up a 'bill of sale' and charge her $1........make sure you have the year-make-model- & VIN # on the bill of sale. also that you "release all interest in said vehicle"

She takes the title to her state DMV... with the "bill of sale"
they Title it to her in the state of florida ....and get it registered/plated if florida requires any taxes or fees they'll collect ,but i think she'll just need the usual liscence & title fee

p.s you're a very sweet Mom

Answer 4

She'll pay a minumum tax, she needs to transfer the title in Fl. Put on the title "gift"
