Mississippi FAQs

Yes, at times! You must provide proof of ownership. This is usually a registration or insurance card that corresponds to your photo ID. Offers without a title are typically lower than offers with a valid title. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to buy every car in every city without a title.

If your Mississippi vehicle title doesn’t look like the ones pictured online, it could be an older version, as titles can change over time. The Mississippi Department of Revenue (DOR) and its Motor Vehicle Licensing Bureau periodically update title designs to incorporate new security features and design elements. However, older titles are usually still valid as long as they have not been altered or damaged.

Here’s what you should do if your Mississippi title doesn’t match the images online:

  1. Verify the information: Check that the information on the title is accurate and legible, including the vehicle identification number (VIN), make, model, year, and owner’s information.

  2. Look for signs of tampering: Ensure that the title has not been altered, forged, or tampered with. Signs of tampering could include erasures, corrections, or inconsistencies in the text or font.

  3. Contact the Mississippi Department of Revenue (DOR) or local tax collector’s office: If you’re unsure about the validity of your title, contact the DOR or your local tax collector’s office, which handles vehicle registrations and titles. They can provide guidance on how to confirm the title’s authenticity and answer any questions you may have.

  4. Obtain a replacement title if necessary: If your title is lost, damaged, or illegible, you can apply for a duplicate title by submitting an application form and the required fee to the Mississippi Department of Revenue or your local tax collector’s office.

Remember, when selling a vehicle, it’s crucial to ensure the title’s validity to avoid any issues during the ownership transfer process.

In Mississippi, you are not required to turn in your license plate when you sell your car. License plates in Mississippi are tied to the vehicle and usually transfer with the car to the new owner, as long as the new owner is a Mississippi resident.

However, if the new owner is from another state, they may need to obtain new plates from their state, and you should remove your Mississippi plates before handing over the car.

If you decide to remove the plates or the buyer requests that you do so, you can either:

  1. Transfer the plates to another vehicle you own by visiting your local tax collector’s office, providing the required documents and paying any applicable fees.

  2. Surrender the plates to your local tax collector’s office if you no longer need them.

It’s important to note that the buyer should register the vehicle and obtain new plates if needed before driving the car. As the seller, removing the plates before handing over the car will remind the buyer of this responsibility and help avoid any potential issues.

any potential issues or gaps in coverage. Here are the steps you should follow:

  1. Contact your insurance agent or company: Notify them of the sale as soon as possible. They can provide guidance on what to do next, which may include canceling the policy, transferring the policy to a new vehicle, or adjusting the coverage.

  2. Cancel or transfer coverage: If you are not purchasing another vehicle, you can request to cancel your auto insurance policy. If you’re planning to buy another vehicle, you can ask your insurance agent or company to transfer the coverage from the sold vehicle to the new one. This ensures continuous coverage and helps you avoid potential penalties for a lapse in insurance.

  3. Remove sold vehicle from policy: If you have multiple vehicles on the same policy, ensure that the sold vehicle is removed from the policy. This will prevent you from continuing to pay for coverage on a car you no longer own.

  4. Provide necessary documentation: Your insurance company may require documentation related to the sale, such as a bill of sale or a completed Notice of Transfer form. Provide these documents promptly to prevent any delays in processing the changes to your policy.

  5. Review policy changes: After making any changes to your policy, review the updated documents to ensure everything is accurate. This includes checking that the sold vehicle has been removed or coverage has been transferred to a new vehicle, as well as verifying the updated premium.

By addressing your auto insurance promptly after selling your car, you can avoid potential issues or gaps in coverage and ensure you’re only paying for the coverage you need.

After selling your car in Mississippi, there are several steps to follow to ensure a smooth and legal transfer of ownership:

  1. Complete the title transfer: Sign the “Seller” section on the back of the vehicle title and fill in the buyer’s information. Have the buyer sign in the “Buyer” section. Make sure to include the vehicle’s sale price and the current odometer reading.

  2. Provide a bill of sale: A bill of sale acts as proof of the transaction for both the buyer and the seller. It should include the vehicle’s make, model, year, VIN, purchase price, sale date, and signatures of both parties. While not mandatory in Mississippi, a bill of sale is highly recommended for both parties’ records.

  3. Remove the license plates (if necessary): In Mississippi, license plates usually transfer with the vehicle to the new owner, as long as the new owner is a Mississippi resident. However, if the new owner lives in another state, they will need to obtain new plates from their state, and you should remove your Mississippi plates before handing over the car.

  4. Odometer disclosure statement: Federal law requires sellers to disclose the accurate mileage of the vehicle at the time of the sale for vehicles that are 10 years old or newer. In Mississippi, this information can be included on the title itself.

  5. Notify your insurance company: Contact your insurance company to cancel or transfer your coverage to another vehicle after completing the sale.

  6. Keep copies of all documents: Retain copies of the bill of sale, the completed title, and any other relevant documents for your records. This can help protect you in case of any disputes or issues that may arise in the future.

While Mississippi does not require you to report the sale to the Department of Revenue, it’s still essential to complete the other steps to ensure a smooth and legal transfer of ownership. Always check with the Mississippi Department of Revenue or your local tax collector’s office for the most up-to-date information and requirements, as they may change over time.
