Paperwork to sell a car in Connecticut
- Title: The seller completes and signs the reverse side of the title and gives it to the buyer, along with a bill of sale.
- No title: Connecticut does not require titles for vehicles more than 20 model years old (CGS §14-166), so those sell without a title; the registration serves as proof of ownership.
- After the sale: There is no separate notice-of-sale form.
- Plates: Plates stay with the seller.
