Do You Need a Bill of Sale in Wisconsin?

There is no legal requirement to complete a Bill of Sale when selling and buying personal property in Wisconsin unless the deal involves vehicles, real estate, or mobile homes. Though it is not needed officially, it is strongly recommended to fill out a Bill of Sale, since it is equally important for both parties. It serves as proof of purchase and outlines all the specifics of the deal. Buyers will use the document to prove they are now legal owners of the goods, and sellers will release themselves from any liability for the described item.

A Bill of Sale in Wisconsin should include the following information:

  1. Personal information of the seller and the buyer. Identify both parties by their names, add their mailing addresses and driver's license numbers;
  2. Description of the sold property. State all the relevant details that can be used later to identify the transferred item - its size, color, serial number, model, make, and other characteristics the parties deem important. You may also list the defects the item has in this section;
  3. Payment information. Indicate the price of the property and the chosen method of payment;
  4. Date and location of the sale. Specify the exact time and place where the item becomes the possession of the new owner;
  5. Seller's disclosure. The seller may provide the purchaser with guarantees, or the item is sold "as is" - in its current condition;
  6. Signatures of the parties.

Prepare the document in two original copies for each party.

Does a Bill of Sale Have to Be Notarized in Wisconsin?

This form does not require notarization, however, you may prefer to have your Bill of Sale notarized to add an extra layer of legal protection.
