In most states, you typically need to register your car at the DMV within 15 to 30 days of purchase or moving to a new state. However, specific timelines can vary by state, so it's important to check local regulations. Failing to register on time may result in fines or penalties. Always ensure you have the necessary documentation ready for the registration process.

Can a car title be transfered to someone without a license?

not legally A: I think not, you need to have the legal papers for your car before you can register it. You need to do a "Title Search" with DMV and then have the registered owner sign the title over to you. If the owner is deceased or cannot be found then you have to apply for a "Salvage Title" and explain the circumstance before DMV will issue you a title. jack2e

Can your father purchase the car though have it registered in your name?

Yes, have him sell it to you. Whether or not there is money exchanged that doesn't matter. Than take the bill of sale if the car is 10yrs or older and the title to the dmv and they will register and license the car to you. If the car is newer than 10yrs than you will need a secure odometer reading and a bill of sale along with the title. Also, make sure you have the title to the car and that everyone on it has signed off in the right place otherwise that can cause other problems to getting it registered and titled. Also, you only have 90days to get it registered in your name. Otherwise the dmv will tac on additional late fees.
