When Nevada Requires Notarization for RV and Boat Sales

Nevada law doesn't universally require notarization for all vehicle sales, but the Nevada DMV strongly recommends notarized bills of sale for private-party transactions—especially for high-value vehicles like RVs, boats, and recreational vehicles. Here's when you should get notarization:

Private-Party RV Sales

When selling an RV (motorhome, travel trailer, fifth wheel, or camper) directly to another individual—not through a dealer—a notarized bill of sale protects both parties. The notarization verifies the seller's identity, confirms the sale price, and creates a legal record that the transaction occurred on a specific date. This prevents disputes about ownership, sale terms, or whether the transaction actually happened.

Boat and Watercraft Transfers

Boats registered in Nevada—whether at Lake Mead, Lake Mohave, or used on other Nevada waters—follow similar rules. A notarized bill of sale or title transfer helps the buyer register the boat with the Nevada Department of Wildlife (which handles boat registrations) and proves clean title transfer. This is particularly important for boats with trailers, as both the watercraft and trailer may require separate documentation.

Out-of-State Title Transfers

If you're buying an RV or boat titled in another state (California, Arizona, Utah, etc.) and registering it in Nevada, notarization often smooths the title transfer process. Some states require notarized signatures on their title documents, and Nevada DMV may request notarized documentation to verify the chain of ownership when accepting out-of-state titles.

Required Documents and IDs for Boulder City RV/Boat Notarizations

Before scheduling your mobile notary appointment in Boulder City, gather these documents and identification:

Nevada-Acceptable Photo IDs

Both buyer and seller must present valid, government-issued photo identification:

  • Nevada driver's license or ID card (current, unexpired)
  • U.S. passport or passport card (valid, unexpired)
  • Military ID (active duty or retired, with photo)
  • Out-of-state driver's license (if currently valid and unexpired)
  • Permanent resident card (green card) with photo

The ID must show your current legal name, photograph, signature, and be issued by a government agency. Expired IDs cannot be used for notarization, even if expired recently. If your name on the ID doesn't match the name on the bill of sale or title (due to marriage, divorce, or legal name change), bring supporting documentation like a marriage certificate or court order.

Vehicle Documents to Have Ready

  • Original vehicle title (if available) – The seller should have the title showing them as the current owner
  • Bill of sale (completed or blank) – Nevada DMV provides a standard form (VP 012), or you can use your own bill of sale as long as it includes required information: buyer/seller names and addresses, vehicle VIN, year/make/model, sale price, date, and signatures
  • Vehicle registration (helpful but not required for notarization) – Shows current registration status
  • Odometer disclosure (for vehicles under 10 years old) – Federal law requires odometer reading disclosure for most vehicles
  • Lien release (if applicable) – If there was a loan on the RV or boat, you need documentation that the lien has been paid off and released

Important: Do NOT sign the title or bill of sale before the notary arrives. The notary must witness you signing the documents in person—that's what notarization means. Pre-signed documents cannot be notarized.

How Mobile Notary Works for Boulder City Vehicle Sales

Mobile notary service eliminates the hassle of coordinating schedules and transportation for both parties to meet at a bank or UPS Store during business hours. Here's the step-by-step process for RV and boat sale notarizations in Boulder City:

Step 1: Schedule Your Appointment

Book online at lakemeadmobilenotary.com/book or call (702) 748-7444 to schedule. Let us know:

  • The meeting location (your home, RV storage facility, Lake Mead marina, etc.)
  • Preferred date and time (we offer same-day appointments when available)
  • Type of vehicle (RV, boat, trailer) and number of documents
  • Number of signers (seller only, or both buyer and seller)

Boulder City tip: If you're meeting at a Lake Mead marina or storage facility, let us know the facility name and any gate codes or access instructions. We're familiar with local marinas including Boulder Beach Marina, Callville Bay Marina, and Lake Mead RV Village.

Step 2: We Travel to Your Boulder City Location

Our licensed Nevada notary travels directly to your specified location anywhere in Boulder City—including remote areas, foothill properties, and Lake Mead National Recreation Area locations. We bring all necessary equipment:

  • Nevada notary stamp and seal
  • Official notary journal for record-keeping
  • Notarial certificates (if your documents don't have them pre-printed)
  • ID verification tools
  • Portable table/surface for document signing (if needed)

Step 3: ID Verification and Document Review

When we arrive, the notary will:

  • Verify each signer's identity using the government-issued photo IDs you provide
  • Ensure all signers appear willing to sign (not under duress or coercion)
  • Confirm document completeness – All required fields should be filled in (names, addresses, VIN, sale price, etc.) except signatures
  • Answer questions about the notarization process (note: notaries cannot provide legal advice about the transaction itself)

Step 4: Witness Signatures and Complete Notarization

The seller (and buyer, if they're having signatures notarized) will sign the bill of sale and/or title in the notary's presence. The notary then:

  • Completes the notarial certificate with the date, location, and notary information
  • Affixes the official Nevada notary seal/stamp
  • Signs the notarial certificate
  • Records the notarization in the official notary journal (required by Nevada law)
  • Provides completed, notarized documents to you

The entire process typically takes 10-15 minutes for a standard RV or boat bill of sale. If you have multiple documents or additional paperwork (title transfers, power of attorney for vehicle registration, lien releases, etc.), plan for 20-30 minutes.

Step 5: Take Documents to Nevada DMV or Wildlife Department

After notarization, the buyer can take the notarized bill of sale and title to:

  • Nevada DMV (for RVs, trailers, and motorhomes) – The Henderson DMV at 1399 American Pacific Drive or Boulder City DMV services at select times
  • Nevada Department of Wildlife (for boats and watercraft) – Regional offices handle boat registrations

The notarized documents prove clean transfer of ownership and facilitate faster registration processing.

Where We Meet You in Boulder City

Mobile notary service means we come to wherever you and the buyer/seller are meeting—eliminating the need for everyone to coordinate transportation to a notary office. Common Boulder City locations for RV and boat sale notarizations include:

🏠 Residential Properties

Most RV and boat sales happen at one party's home—especially if the vehicle is currently parked on the property. We come to any Boulder City neighborhood including Old Town, ABC Streets, Bootleg Canyon area, Lakeview, Eldorado Valley, and foothill properties. If the RV or boat is in your driveway, garage, or side yard, we can complete the notarization right there so you can inspect the vehicle while finalizing paperwork.

🚐 RV Storage Facilities

Many Boulder City residents store RVs and boats at dedicated storage facilities when not in use. We travel to storage yards including:

  • Lake Mead RV Village (on Nevada Way)
  • Boulder City Self Storage facilities with RV/boat parking
  • Private storage lots and yards
  • Indoor/covered RV storage facilities

Just provide the facility name and any gate codes or check-in procedures. We'll meet you at the storage unit so the buyer can inspect the RV or boat before signing the bill of sale.

⚓ Lake Mead Marinas and Boat Launches

Selling a boat currently docked at Lake Mead? We can meet you at marinas and lake facilities including:

  • Boulder Beach Marina – Closest Lake Mead marina to Boulder City
  • Las Vegas Boat Harbor – Full-service marina and boat storage
  • Lake Mead Marina – Houseboats and watercraft sales common here
  • Callville Bay Marina – Further from Boulder City but we serve this area
  • Hemenway Harbor boat launch – Public launch area in Boulder City

Marina notarizations work well because both parties can see the boat on the water, test equipment, and finalize the sale with immediate notarization of paperwork. Note: Lake Mead National Recreation Area requires a park entrance fee; we include this in our service area but recommend meeting in marina parking areas for easiest access.

🏥 Boulder City Hospital (for Exceptional Circumstances)

In rare cases where a seller or buyer is hospitalized, we can provide bedside notarization at Boulder City Hospital. This requires the patient to be conscious, alert, and capable of understanding the transaction. Hospital notarizations involve additional coordination with nursing staff and visiting hours.

☕ Public Locations (Neutral Ground)

Some parties prefer to meet on neutral ground—especially when buyer and seller don't know each other well. We can meet you at:

  • Coffee shops or restaurants in downtown Boulder City
  • Boulder City Library (quiet, professional environment)
  • Public parks with picnic tables
  • Boulder City Visitors Center parking area

Just choose a location with adequate lighting, table space for documents, and where all parties feel comfortable.

Common Questions About Boulder City RV and Boat Notarizations

Do both buyer and seller need to be present for notarization?

Only the person signing the document needs to be present. If the bill of sale requires both signatures to be notarized, then yes, both parties must be there. However, many bills of sale only require the seller's signature to be notarized—in which case only the seller needs to meet with the notary. Check your specific document requirements or ask us when scheduling.

What if the RV or boat is titled in someone else's name (family member, deceased owner)?

The person named on the title must sign the transfer documents—or you need legal documentation (power of attorney, estate executor papers, etc.) showing you have authority to sign on their behalf. If the owner is deceased, the estate representative (executor or administrator) typically handles the transfer. We can notarize power of attorney documents or executor signatures, but cannot notarize someone signing another person's name without proper legal authority.

Can you notarize Nevada DMV forms like the VP 012?

Yes, we regularly notarize Nevada DMV forms including the VP 012 (bill of sale for a motor vehicle), title transfers, and odometer disclosure statements. As long as the document has space for a notarial certificate (or we can attach one), and all required fields are completed, we can notarize it.

What if I need notarization on a weekend or holiday?

We offer weekend and evening appointments in Boulder City—perfect for when both parties work weekdays and can only meet on Saturday/Sunday. We also provide service on many holidays. Book online to see available time slots, or call (702) 748-7444 to check holiday availability.

Can you explain how to fill out the bill of sale, or give legal advice?

Notaries are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice about the transaction, fill out documents for you, or tell you what should be in the bill of sale. We can point out blank fields that need to be completed before notarization, and can provide general information about the notarization process itself. For legal questions about the vehicle sale, consult an attorney. For questions about Nevada DMV requirements, contact the DMV directly or visit dmv.nv.gov.

Why Choose Mobile Notary Over UPS Store or Bank in Boulder City

Boulder City has limited notary options compared to larger cities. While the UPS Store and some banks offer notary services, mobile notary provides significant advantages for RV and boat sales:

✅ We Come to the Vehicle Location

The biggest advantage: we meet you where the RV or boat is located. This means the buyer can inspect the vehicle, confirm condition, test equipment, and immediately finalize the purchase with notarized paperwork—all in one trip. No need to coordinate meeting at a notary office, then going back to see the vehicle, then returning to complete paperwork.

✅ Evening and Weekend Availability

UPS Store operates weekday business hours only (typically 9am-5pm) and may have reduced Saturday hours. Banks have even more limited notary availability. Mobile notary offers evening and weekend appointments—when both parties can actually meet without taking time off work.

✅ No Wait Times or Appointments

Walk-in notary services (like UPS Store) can involve waiting in line behind other customers. Some bank notaries require account holders only or appointments days in advance. With mobile notary, you book your specific time slot and we arrive promptly—no waiting, no uncertainty.

✅ Serves Remote Boulder City Locations

If your RV is stored in a foothill area, the boat is at a Lake Mead marina, or you live in Eldorado Valley—mobile notary eliminates a trip into town. We serve all of Boulder City's 208 square miles including remote and off-grid properties.

✅ Professional, Dedicated Service

Mobile notary service focuses exclusively on notarization—not shipping packages or conducting banking transactions. You get a professional notary's full attention, proper ID verification, careful document handling, and clear explanations of the process.

Yes, Lake Mead Mobile Notary serves all Boulder City neighborhoods including Eldorado Valley, Lakeview, and all remote or foothill properties within the 89005 and 89006 zip codes. We travel to residential areas throughout Boulder City's 208 square miles, including properties in outlying desert and mountain locations.

Eldorado Valley residents often appreciate mobile notary service because the drive into downtown Boulder City or to UPS Store locations adds 20-30 minutes each way to simple notarization tasks. We eliminate that drive by coming directly to your property, whether you need bill of sale notarizations for vehicle sales, estate planning documents like powers of attorney and living wills, real estate closing documents, or general affidavits and notarizations.

Lakeview neighborhood access is straightforward, and we're familiar with the area's layout near Lake Mead.

Nevada notary law requires valid, government-issued photo identification for all document signers. For RV, boat, and vehicle title transfers or bill of sale notarizations in Boulder City, we accept the following unexpired photo IDs: Nevada driver's license or state ID card, U.S. passport or passport card, military ID (active duty or retired with photo), out-of-state driver's license (if currently valid), and permanent resident cards (green cards) with photos.

The ID must display your current legal name, photograph, signature, and be issued by a government agency. Expired IDs cannot be used for notarization even if recently expired. If your name on the ID doesn't match the name on the bill of sale or title due to marriage, divorce, or legal name change, bring supporting documentation such as a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court order showing the name change.

Both buyer and seller must present valid IDs when both signatures require notarization. For vehicle sales specifically, ensure the name on the seller's ID matches the name on the current title exactly. Discrepancies can cause Nevada DMV to reject the transfer. If you have questions about your specific ID situation, call us at (702) 748-7444 before your appointment.

We bring ID verification tools and expertise in Nevada notary identification requirements, ensuring your Boulder City vehicle sale documents are properly executed for smooth DMV processing.
