Where To Sign
For you to sell a car in Montana, your title must be notarized to verify and officiate the signature.
On the front, lower right of your document, find the ‘SIGNATURE OF SELLER’ section and sign.
Important Tips About Signatures On The Title
- Signatures must be similar. Always check to ensure that you are signing correctly and accurately before you can sign the title.
- Alien holders that have been listed on your title must be the ones to sign off the title. However, if the alien holder is not available or cannot sign, you will require to have the original lien release from the lien holder.
- You must sign in the presence of a notary.
Where To Print Your Name
On the ‘PRINTED NAME’ section on the front of your document right below the signature section, print your name on the line. (Do not type. Ensure the printed name is signed similarly to the signature.)
Important Tips About Names
- Ensure that the owner(s) name in the front of your title is an exact match of the seller’s name at the back of the title.
- For multiple owners let’s say it reads ‘your name AND other owners name’ at the front of the title, both you and the other listed owner must sign the title.
