A Delaware bill of sale form is a document completed by the parties to a transaction where ownership of personal property was transferred. The buyer and the seller will be required to submit their personal information and signatures. They’ll also need to describe the property being sold and the purchase price. A bill of sale is often required during the registration process of newly acquired vehicles and vessels. It may also serve to prove ownership of a firearm. Depending on the items recorded in the transaction, the completed bill of sale document may require notarization to further authenticate the signatures therein.
