How do I get temporary tags for a vehicle I am buying from a private?
Youll need to cross the bridge and pick up the vehicle with its current registration, have the seller write a bill of sale (receipt), with the agreed price, and with the registration card signed over to you. Take that registration card (the Vehicle Identification Number, or VIN is on it), to the Delaware DMV and with your receipt, and ask for a temporary tag to drive the car back home. They may want to see your proof of insurance. For more information, follow this link: Good luck with your vehicle!
