no tax on gift. **Proof of sales tax payment, sales tax exemption, or purchase price.** You **must** pay the sales tax, prove that it was paid, or prove your exemption at the DMV office when there is a **change of ownership, a lease agreement, or a new resident** of NYS applies for a NYS registration or title certificate. You must get a sales tax receipt from the DMV even if the transaction is exempt from sales tax. - If the **name of the owner** that appears on the NYS title certificate **will not change** , sales tax forms and proofs are not required. See the information below if you were **not a resident of NYS** when the vehicle was purchased. - If you bought the vehicle **from a NYS automobile dealer or an out-of-state dealer that is authorized to collect NYS sales tax** , bring the dealer’s bill of sale that shows that you paid NYS sales tax. Also bring form MV-50 (NYS dealer only) or [form DTF-803](http://www.nysdmv.com/forms.htm#dtf803) (out-of-state dealer). If NYS sales tax was paid to a NYS dealer, sales tax is not collected when you apply for a vehicle registration, and the DMV does not issue a sales tax receipt. - If you bought your vehicle from **another person in a private sale** , both the buyer and the seller must complete [form DTF-802](http://www.nysdmv.com/forms.htm#dtf802). Bring the form to a DMV office. The DMV calculates and collects the sales tax, and issues a sales tax receipt. - If you leased the vehicle, see the information about [leased vehicles](http://www.nysdmv.com/register.htm#leased). - If the vehicle was a **gift** or was **purchased from a family member** , use [form DTF-802](http://www.nysdmv.com/forms.htm#dtf802) to receive a sales tax exemption. - If you **paid out-of-state sales tax** , show the out-of-state dealer bill of sale. The bill of sale must show the purchase price and the amount of out-of-state sales tax paid to the dealer. Use [form DTF-804](http://www.nysdmv.com/forms.htm#dtf804) to claim credit for the state and local sales taxes you paid in the other state. This process can reduce the amount of your NYS sales tax if NYS and the other state have an agreement about sales tax. ---

I thought of it, but I hate to spoon feed people when they can easily find the info themselves. ---
