: Anyone can buy a car and have the title placed in their name. This is common for car collectors, individuals buying gifts, or those who use a caregiver or chauffeur.

These are the most difficult parts of the process for unlicensed buyers:

: To title the vehicle, you must provide a signed and notarized vehicle title, an odometer disclosure statement, and a damage disclosure statement.

: While a driver's license is standard, the NCDMV generally accepts a valid North Carolina State ID or a U.S. Passport to verify your identity for titling purposes.
