A Kansas motor vehicle bill of sale is a proof of purchase document that records a transaction between the seller of a vehicle and a buyer. This form contains the names and addresses of both parties, a description of the vehicle, and the date of the sale. Once signed by both parties, the bill of sale serves as an affidavit (legal confirmation) that the purchase price was paid by the buyer.
