Free Louisiana Bill of Sale Template

Print-ready and free — no signup, no "form fee." It covers every element Louisiana asks for, including the federal odometer disclosure and a notary block. Print it, or choose "Save as PDF" in the print dialog.

Louisiana publishes an official form: Bill of Sale of a Motor Vehicle (Louisiana OMV). Some agencies prefer their own form — when in doubt, use the state's. This template carries the same information.
Notarization — Required: When a separate bill of sale is used it must be an original notarized document (an authorized agent of a federally insured financial institution may witness the assignment instead of a notary in limited cases, and an act of donation must always be notarized). Sign in front of the notary, not before.

3. Odometer disclosure

Federal law (49 U.S.C. 32705) requires mileage disclosure at transfer for vehicles fewer than 20 model years old. I, the Seller, certify the odometer readsmiles (no tenths), and that to the best of my knowledge this reading is (check one):

Actual mileageExceeds mechanical limitsNOT the actual mileage (warning: odometer discrepancy)

If the vehicle is not exempt from federal odometer requirements (generally under 20 model years old) and the title's back lacks an Odometer Disclosure Statement, a supplemental Odometer Disclosure Statement must be submitted.
