Don't Get Busted For Sales Tax Evasion!

Tony,

I have a 2001 Audi A4 I bought a few months ago from a private seller in NY, but did not register yet in my state. I now want to sell it to a private party. I have the title with the seller's name on it and have signed the back. Do I need to register the car and get a title in my state in my name to sell it?

Thanks,

RJ

Hi RJ,

Legally you have to transfer the title into your name and pay sales tax on the car. You can then sell the car to a new owner who will have to do the same in order to be legal.

If you skip over yourself from the previous owner to your buyer you are taking a chance of getting in trouble for sales tax evasion. Don't do it!

Take care,
