When you want to sell a vehicle, transfer it, register your vehicle, or be involved in other business with the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles, there will be forms that you have to fill out. These forms are usually available on the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles website.
Not all forms are available online, so if there are forms that you do not find there or in this list, you should reach out to the local BMV for information on where to get the form that you’re looking for. Some forms are no longer available on paper, and tasks must be completed through the myBMV application.
Application for Certificate of Title for a Vehicle
Whenever you want to buy, sell or transfer a vehicle, you will need to have your certificate of title available. If you do not have one, you can ask for it from the BMV. With the Application for Certificate of Title for a Vehicle, which is form 205, you can title your vehicle with the Indiana BMV.
Affidavit for Restoration for a Salvage Motor Vehicle
Form 44606 is the Affidavit for Restoration for a Salvage Motor Vehicle. This form can be used to apply for a title for a salvaged vehicle while in Indiana.
