Free Missouri Bill of Sale Template

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

Missouri publishes an official form: Form 1957 — Bill of Sale or Even-Trade Bill of Sale (Missouri Department of Revenue, rev. 08-2019). Some agencies prefer their own form — when in doubt, use the state's. This template carries the same information.
Notarization — Conditional: Per Form 1957 itself, the Bill of Sale must be notarized only when showing proof of ownership of major component parts of a rebuilt vehicle or when specifically requested by the Department of Revenue; title-assignment signatures do not need to 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)

The seller must write the odometer reading and date of sale on the assigned title, per the federal baseline applying to vehicles under 20 model years old (MY 2011 and newer).
