How to Transfer Texas Title

How do I release the liability of my vehicle in Texas (TX)?

The state of Texas DOES require a Certificate of Title in order to transfer ownership of your vehicle. We ask that your license plates remain on the vehicle at the time of pick-up UNLESS they are personalized.
In order to complete the sale of your Texas vehicle, you must transfer your title by entering the name of the buyer/purchaser in the buyer/purchaser field. Please PRINT and SIGN your name in the seller/owner field EXACTLY as it appears at the top of the title.
License plates must be removed at time of pickup. They may be kept, destroyed or transferred.
For detailed instructions on how to properly fill out and transfer your Texas title, see the title samples below.
