An Arkansas motor vehicle bill of sale (Form 10-313) is a document that serves as legal proof that a motor vehicle has transferred ownership. The form conveniently includes an odometer disclosure statement, which is usually separate. New owners must furnish a legal bill of sale in order to register the vehicle.

Registering a Vehicle
New owners or individuals who have just moved to the state of Arkansas must have their vehicles titled and registered within thirty (30) days of purchase or moving. Prospective registrants may register in-person or online, but if registering online, title documents will only be mailed when all required documents have been received. Renewal periods may vary, but renewals can be easily completed online with MyDMV Arkansas.
