Title Transfers: Late Penalty Fee
If a purchaser of a vehicle, previously registered in North Carolina, fails to make application for
transfer within 28 days from the date of delivery or notary date, whichever is later, the owner will
be subject to a late penalty of $15.00 (If the 28th day falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or a holiday
observed by the Division, the 29th will be the application date.) Title transfers received through
the mail by the Division must be postmarked within the 28 days to avoid the penalty. The penalty
also applies to vehicles purchased from dealers or repossessors.
A penalty fee is determined by counting 1st day after notary, purchase, and/or sale date in the
assignment to the applicant.
