What is Form MV-16?

Transferring a car or truck to a spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild in Georgia? Normally Georgia charges a 6.6% Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) on vehicle title transfers, but transfers between qualifying immediate family members are eligible for a reduced 0.5% TAVT rate when accompanied by a notarized Form MV-16. JustFill loads the current 1-page Georgia DOR MV-16 (Revised 01/2026) PDF so you can type the 17-character VIN, transferor and transferee details, and relationship cleanly before visiting the notary and your County Tag Office.

Field-by-field breakdown

What each section of Form MV-16 asks for. JustFill’s AI will detect these fields automatically when you upload the PDF — review the breakdown below so you know what to enter.

Vehicle information

17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), model year, and make of the vehicle being transferred.

Transferor (previous owner) information

Full legal name, residential street address, city, state, ZIP, telephone number, and driver license or state ID number of the family member transferring the vehicle.

Transferee (new owner) information

Full legal name, Georgia street address, city, state, ZIP, telephone number, and driver license or ID number of the family member receiving the vehicle.

Immediate family relationship certification

Identifies the exact qualifying relationship between the transferor and transferee (spouse, parent, child, stepchild, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild).

Signatures & notary acknowledgment

Signed by both the transferor and transferee in the presence of a commissioned Notary Public, who dates, signs, and affixes their notary seal.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • 1Signing Form MV-16 before meeting the notary — both the transferor and transferee must sign in front of a notary public (unless notarized separately on two copies).
  • 2Using Form MV-16 for an aunt, uncle, cousin, niece, or nephew — Georgia law limits the MV-16 immediate family TAVT reduction strictly to spouse, parent, child, stepchild, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild.
  • 3Submitting Form MV-16 without the signed-over vehicle title and Form MV-1 (Tag/Title Application) at the County Tag Office.
  • 4Making handwritten alterations or white-out corrections on the VIN — Georgia county tag offices reject altered affidavits.
