The Indiana Bill of Sale Forms are legal documents that are implemented between seller and buyer as a way to provide evidence of a sale that has occurred. These forms will also prove change of ownership. Some of the forms will require notarization. If the form has to be notarized, do not provide signature until all signing parties are before a notary public.
