Car Title & Vehicle Transfer Notarization in Southwest Florida

Buying or selling a vehicle in Florida? One step many people overlook is notarization. Whether you’re transferring a car title, signing a bill of sale, or completing a private vehicle transaction, Florida law requires proper notarization — and Cannon Mobile Notary comes directly to you throughout Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Naples, Bonita Springs, and all of Southwest Florida.

Does Florida Require a Notary for Car Title Transfers?

Yes. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) requires that vehicle title transfers be signed in the presence of a notary public. When you sell or purchase a vehicle through a private party, both parties must sign the back of the title, and those signatures must be notarized. Skipping this step can cause your title transfer to be rejected at the DMV.

What Vehicle Transactions Require Notarization in

Notarization is required for a wide range of vehicle transactions in Florida, including private-party car sales, motorcycle and boat title transfers, gifting a vehicle to a family member, and transferring a title after the owner’s death. Any time ownership of a motor vehicle changes hands outside of a licensed dealership, a notary is typically required to authenticate the signatures on the title.

What to Have Ready for Your Vehicle Notarization

To make your appointment go smoothly, have the following ready: the original vehicle title (unsigned — do not sign until the notary is present), a valid government-issued photo ID for all signing parties, and the odometer disclosure statement if applicable. If the title has a lienholder, you’ll need the lien release documentation as well. Our notary will walk you through each step at your location.
