Golf Cart Bill of Sale Template

A golf cart bill of sale records the make, model, serial number and whether the cart is gas or electric, plus the price and date. Standard golf carts are not titled, so the bill of sale is the ownership record. Street-legal low-speed vehicles (LSVs) are titled and registered like cars. Pick your state and the form adapts to its rules.

Why a golf cart bill of sale matters

  • Golf carts are rarely titled; the bill of sale is proof of ownership.
  • Needed for HOA, community or county permit stickers in many areas.
  • If the cart is an LSV, the DMV needs the price for tax.
  • Lists the charger and batteries, which are a big part of the value.

Before you sign

  • The serial plate is usually under the seat, on the frame or under the glove box.
  • State the battery age for electric carts; it drives the value.
  • Note whether it is a true LSV (lights, seat belts, 17-digit VIN) or a standard cart.
  • Include the charger in the description if it comes with the cart.

Golf Cart Bill of Sale by state

Rules differ by state: some require a bill of sale for every sale, some only when the title has no price, and a few want it notarized. Pick yours for the exact rule, the form number and the agency.

Common questions

Do golf carts have titles?+

Standard golf carts do not. Low-speed vehicles built for public roads do, and are registered like cars. If yours has a 17-character VIN and a seat belt, it is probably an LSV.

Do I need a bill of sale for a golf cart?+

It is the only document most buyers will ever have for it, so yes. Communities that require golf cart permits usually ask for one too.
