See the ID ITD 3337 filled — from just a VIN
Enter a VIN, the buyer's name, and the price. We decode the vehicle and drop it onto the actual Idaho ITD 3337 — the same fill DealerVLO produces from a deal. Watermarked preview; nothing is saved.
What the ITD 3337 is and why it matters
ITD 3337 is Idaho's Application for Certificate of Title — the form that puts a vehicle in an Idaho resident's name when the deal isn't written on an Idaho dealer's controlled ITD 0502. That makes it the form an out-of-state dealer fills out for an Idaho buyer, and the one Idaho lenders and manufactured-home dealers use. It's filed with a county assessor's motor vehicle office, and whoever files it has 30 days from delivery.
The section that decides whether it goes through is Section 3, Sale Information. Idaho taxes at a flat 6%, the doc fee is taxable, and a trade-in lowers the taxable price only on a dealer sale. The sale box also asks whether you collected Idaho tax under an Idaho seller's permit or left it for the buyer to pay at the county. And the Section 6 dealer certification includes a VIN-inspection checkbox that out-of-state title files rely on. This guide walks the current (Rev 9/26) form section by section.
Know which Idaho form you actually need. ITD 3337 is the public Application for Certificate of Title, and page 2 of the form says it's intended for Idaho financial agencies, licensed Idaho manufactured-home dealers, out-of-state dealerships, and private-party sales to Idaho residents conducted outside Idaho. A licensed Idaho retail vehicle dealer normally titles its sales on ITD 0502, the Report of Sale and Application for Certificate of Title — a serial-numbered form dealers order from ITD (on ITD 3195) and must use in control-number order, so it isn't a download. This guide covers ITD 3337 — the form an out-of-state dealer uses when it sells to an Idaho resident. The 30-day filing clock applies either way.
Documents to have before you start
Gather these before you complete the ITD 3337. A missing attachment is the number-one reason the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) — Division of Motor Vehicles bounces a title application back.
- The properly assigned title (or MCO/MSO for a new unit) — Submit the original with the application. The title number and state of a non-Idaho title are entered on the form.
- Bill of sale or purchase agreement — From an out-of-state dealer, the county expects the original bill of sale. It should list the trade-in and any rebate as separate lines if they're going to reduce the tax.
- Buyer's identification — Idaho driver's license or ID number on the form. A buyer without one needs an unexpired U.S. government-issued photo ID or a foreign passport, and you check the Verified Photo ID box.
- VIN inspection for an out-of-state title — Idaho requires a VIN inspection when the title wasn't issued in Idaho. On ITD 3337 an out-of-state dealer or Idaho-registered financial institution can certify its own physical inspection with the Section 6 checkbox.
- Lienholder information, if financed — Primary and secondary lienholder name and mailing address, exactly as they should print on the title.
- Tax-exemption form, if claiming an exemption — If you check Tax Exempt Sale, enter the exemption form number and enclose the form with the package.
ITD 3337, section by section
Section 1 — Purchaser / Owner
Up to three owners, each with a full legal name (or business name), an Idaho driver's license number (or SSN, or EIN for a business), sex, and date of birth. The Or / And boxes set how the title can later be signed off: OR lets any owner sign; AND requires every owner. LSR / LSE mark a lessor and lessee, and DBA puts a business name on its own owner line. An applicant with no Idaho license or ID needs the Verified Photo ID box checked. Below that, the owner's Idaho physical address, plus a mailing address if it's different.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Owner #1 full legal name or business name Legal name, no titles like Mr. or Dr. | Buyer |
Idaho driver's license # or SSN / EIN if business Idaho DL/ID first; SSN if none; EIN for a company or trust. | Buyer |
Sex, D.O.B. | Buyer |
Verified Photo ID? Check for any applicant without an Idaho license or ID (unexpired U.S. government photo ID or foreign passport). | You (dealer) |
Or / And / LSR / DBA How co-owners hold title — copy the buyer's instruction exactly. | Buyer |
Owner #2 and #3 (if any), with LSE / DBA | Buyer |
Owner's Idaho physical address; mailing address if different | Buyer |
Section 2 — Vehicle Description
The unit itself. The VIN must match the title and the vehicle. Most of the second and third rows (wheel base, length, width, hull material, horsepower, propulsion) apply mainly to trailers, ATVs/UTVs, motorhomes, and boats; fill in fuel type and weight where they apply to the vehicle. Enter the odometer with no tenths, mark miles or kilometers, give the date of the reading, and check one status box.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
1st VIN (or HIN); 2nd VIN if assigned Must match the title and the VIN plate. | You (dealer) |
Year, make, body type, model, description | You (dealer) |
Color (primary/secondary), fuel type | You (dealer) |
Wheel base, weight, length, width Only where the vehicle type calls for it. | You (dealer) |
Odometer reading (no tenths), Mi / Km, date of reading | You (dealer) |
Odometer status: Actual / In Excess / Not Actual / No Device / Exempt Can't mark Actual if the prior title shows anything else. | You (dealer) |
Section 3 — Sale Information
The tax section. Start with the Idaho seller's permit number (the form label says it's required for leasing and rental companies, and it's how the county knows Idaho tax was collected and remitted) and the purchase date. Check Lease, Rental, Tax Not Included, or Tax Exempt Sale as they apply. Then the math: Gross Sales Price, with the doc fee in it (Idaho taxes dealer doc fees). Under Dealer Sales Additional Information, subtract qualifying rebates and the trade-in allowance to get the Adjusted Gross Sales Price, and 6% of that is the Net Idaho Sales Tax Due. Net Idaho Sales Tax Collected is what you actually took in at the sale. An out-of-state dealer that doesn't collect Idaho tax checks Tax Not Included, and the buyer pays at the county. Credit is given for sales tax the buyer paid to your state.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|

Idaho sales/use tax is 6% of the price after a dealer-sale trade-in, with the dealer doc fee included in the taxable price. The trade-in credit applies only to dealer sales where the trade is on the sales documents at the time of sale; private-party sales get no trade-in credit. A manufacturer rebate lowers the taxable price only when it's paid to the dealer and subtracted from the price (not modeled here). If an out-of-state dealer doesn't collect Idaho tax, the buyer pays at the county, with credit for sales tax paid to the other state. Title fee $14; add your county's title admin fee (varies) and registration; optional $26 rush fee; $20 penalty if the title isn't filed within 30 days. Confirm current figures with ITD and the Idaho State Tax Commission.

Section 4 — Lienholder
If the buyer financed, the primary lienholder's name and mailing address go here exactly as they should print on the new Idaho title; a second lien gets its own line. Leave it blank for a cash deal.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Primary lienholder name, mailing address, city, state, Zip+4 | You (dealer) |
Secondary lienholder (if any) | You (dealer) |
Section 5 — Brands
For a vehicle coming off another state's title: the previous state, the previous title number, and any brand that state carried — Rebuilt Salvage, Repaired, Reconstruct, or Other (write it in, e.g. recovered theft). Brands carry forward, so copy them off the surrendered title.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Previous State | You (dealer) |
Previous State Brand: Rebuilt Salvage / Repaired / Reconstruct / Other Copy exactly from the prior title. | You (dealer) |
Title (previous title number) | You (dealer) |
Section 6 — Agency / Dealer
Your dealership or lender, as it appears on your license: name, the printed name and job title of the person signing, address, phone, fax, and email. The checkbox certifies you're an Idaho-registered financial institution or an out-of-state dealership authorized by Idaho, that you physically inspected the vehicle, and that the VIN on the form is correct. The authorized signature then certifies the application, confirms you witnessed the applicant's signature, and releases your interest in the vehicle unless you're listed as lienholder or owner. Finish with the date and the city of the county office you're submitting to.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Agency/Dealer name, address, phone, fax, email As shown on your dealer or agency license. | You (dealer) |
Authorized representative's name printed; title | You (dealer) |
VIN-inspection certification checkbox Only if you physically inspected the vehicle and are eligible to certify. | You (dealer) |
Authorized signature + date Also certifies you witnessed the buyer's signature. | You (dealer) |
County office city Where the title documents are being submitted. | You (dealer) |
Section 7 — Fees Paid
The form prints the $14 title fee and the optional $26 rush fee. Add your county's title admin fee (it varies — the form sends you to dmv.idaho.gov for the amount) and any sales tax being paid with the application, then total it. No cash: pay by check or credit card (card payments carry a service fee).
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Title Fee $14, preprinted. | You (dealer) |
County Title Admin Fee Varies by county. | You (dealer) |
Sales Tax Tax being remitted with the application, if any. | You (dealer) |
Rush Fee (Optional) $26. | You (dealer) |
Total Fees; card details if paying by card | You (dealer) |
Section 8 — Signature(s)
The applicant signs, certifying under penalty of perjury that they own the vehicle and it won't be subject to a lien before the title arrives unless one is listed. Include an email and daytime phone number, and date it. On an AND title, every owner signs. Your authorized representative has to witness these signatures or the county won't process it.
| Field | Who fills it |
|---|---|
Applicant's signature, email, daytime phone, date Signed exactly as Owner #1 appears in Section 1. | Buyer |
Co-applicant signature, email, phone, date Required for every owner on an AND title. | Buyer |

Common ITD 3337 mistakes that cause rejections
ITD 3337 is intended for out-of-state dealerships, Idaho financial agencies, manufactured-home dealers, and out-of-state private sales. A licensed Idaho retail vehicle dealer titles its sales on the controlled ITD 0502 Report of Sale, which it orders from ITD and uses in control-number order. Use the form that fits your license.
Idaho treats a dealer documentation fee as a service that's part of the sale, so it's taxable. Only separately stated government title and registration fees stay out of the taxable price. Leave the doc fee out and the tax comes up short.
A trade-in counts only on a dealer sale, and only if the trade and the purchase are on the same sales documents at the time of sale. A manufacturer rebate counts only if it's paid to the dealer and subtracted from the price. Out-of-state dealers must list both separately on the bill of sale, or the county taxes the full price.
Idaho requires the title application within 30 calendar days of delivery. Late presentation of a transferred title costs the new owner a $20 penalty. For a vehicle bought out of state, the 30 days start when the vehicle enters Idaho. File promptly so your buyer doesn't pay for the delay.
The county returns the application if the dealer or agency didn't witness the applicant's signature. A non-Idaho title also needs a VIN inspection; if you're eligible, check the Section 6 inspection box. Otherwise, the buyer needs a VIN inspection done in Idaho.
Common questions
What is Idaho form ITD 3337?+
ITD 3337 is the Idaho Transportation Department's Application for Certificate of Title. The form says it's intended for Idaho financial agencies, licensed Idaho manufactured-home dealers, out-of-state dealerships and financial agencies, and private-party sales to Idaho residents conducted outside Idaho. It's filed with a county assessor's motor vehicle office.
Do Idaho car dealers use ITD 3337?+
Licensed Idaho retail vehicle dealers normally use ITD 0502, the Report of Sale and Application for Certificate of Title. That's a serial-numbered form dealers order from ITD and use in control-number order. ITD 3337 is the form an out-of-state dealer uses when selling to an Idaho resident.
How much is sales tax on a car in Idaho?+
Idaho's sales and use tax rate is 6%. On a dealer sale, it's figured on the price after a qualifying trade-in and dealer-paid manufacturer rebate. Dealer documentation fees are included in the taxable price, and separately stated government title and registration fees are not.
Does a trade-in reduce Idaho sales tax?+
Yes, on a dealer sale. The trade and the purchase have to be one transaction, with both vehicles identified on the sales documents at the time of sale. Idaho doesn't allow a trade-in credit on private-party sales.
How long do you have to title a car in Idaho?+
The application for title must be filed within 30 calendar days of delivery. If a transferred title is presented after 30 days, the new owner pays a $20 late penalty. For a vehicle bought in another state, the 30 days start when the vehicle enters Idaho.
How much is an Idaho title?+
The title fee printed on ITD 3337 is $14. Counties add a title administrative fee that varies by county, and an optional rush fee is $26. Registration and any sales tax due are separate.
Does an out-of-state dealer have to collect Idaho sales tax?+
If the dealer holds an Idaho seller's permit and collects Idaho tax, it enters the permit number on the form. If it doesn't, the buyer pays Idaho tax when titling at the county. Idaho credits sales tax the buyer paid to the dealer's state, and the buyer owes only the difference if that state's tax was lower.
Is there software that fills out the ITD 3337 automatically?+
Yes. Dealer management software like DealerVLO fills the Idaho ITD 3337 from the deal you already entered — the VIN-decoded vehicle, buyer, co-buyer, lienholder, and sale price are placed for you instead of hand-writing them. For most states that's the official DMV form itself; where a state issues its form only through its own dealer portal, you get a print-ready worksheet with every value already in place. It's $29/month flat with a 14-day free trial, and the same deal also generates your federal documents (Bill of Sale, FTC Buyers Guide, odometer disclosure) and any other state's title forms.
