Prepare for Delaware private-party title transfer using the official agency instructions. Confirm current requirements before visiting.
- Check agency requirements: Have the seller complete the assignment section of the Delaware title, including buyer and odometer information.
- Complete the agency step: Bring the assigned title, Delaware residency/identity evidence and insurance to Delaware DMV to transfer ownership.
