Can a Vehicle Be Transferred If the Purchase Tax Payment Certificate Is Lost?

[OLucille]

Losing the purchase tax payment certificate does not affect vehicle transfer. Below are the relevant details: 1. No need for double payment: A vehicle only requires one-time purchase tax payment. The original owner has already paid the purchase tax when buying the new car, so there is no need to pay again when purchasing a used car. 2. Request for proof: New regulations have abolished the purchase tax transfer and relocation procedures, and also stipulate that when buying a used car, the buyer must request the purchase tax payment certificate from the original owner. 3. Handling loss: If the owner loses the purchase tax payment certificate, they can bring their ID (for company vehicles, the legal entity organization code certificate is required), the motor vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, and purchase invoice to the purchase tax collection office to apply for a replacement. The replacement must be processed at the original issuing location.
