Selling a junk car in Georgia: title & DMV rules
Georgia exempts vehicles model year 1985 and older from titling, so an older Americus car can often be sold on a bill of sale alone. Anything newer needs a title in your name.
- If the title is missing
- Georgia does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (T-22B (Affidavit of Repossession) / MV-46A (Affidavit of Inheritance)) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in Georgia is T-22B (Affidavit of Repossession) / MV-46A (Affidavit of Inheritance).
- License plates
- Remove your plate; Georgia tags stay with the owner and can be transferred.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Cancel the registration with your county tag office and keep the bill of sale — Georgia has no standalone seller notice form.
- What Georgia salvage buyers must do
- Georgia exempts vehicles model year 1985 and older from titling. For 1986+ vehicles, owners need a Bonded Title (MV-46) or use form T-22B if the prior owner is unreachable.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as GA requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
