Frequently Asked Questions

Is a Bill of Sale required for chiropractic equipment in Massachusetts?

Yes, under Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 106, § 2-201, any sale of goods priced at $500 or more must be in writing to be enforceable. For high-value items like X-ray machines or high-end adjustment tables, a detailed Bill of Sale is essential for establishing legal ownership and tax compliance.
