Upon resale, the dealer shall deliver the former owner's registration certificate, the MSO or MCO or notarized bill of sale to the purchaser together with the required invoice. The purchaser shall, when applying for a registration in his or her name, present both the invoice and the former owner's registration certificate and the MSO or MCO or notarized bill of sale to the Motor Vehicle Commission. If a snowmobile has never been registered, the seller must provide a notarized statement of ownership that details the length of time that he or she has owned the snowmobile and why the snowmobile has never been registered.
