July 16, 2026If you’re wondering what to bring for a title transfer in PA, here’s the short answer: the original Certificate of Title signed by the seller, a valid driver’s license or state ID, proof of insurance if you’re registering at the same time, payment for the title fee plus applicable sales tax, and an accurate odometer reading for any vehicle under 20 years old. That covers a standard transfer…
