Can I transfer ownership of a used car without a temporary residence permit?
1 Answers
Without a temporary residence permit, you cannot complete the ownership transfer procedures for a used car. Below are the key points to note for used car ownership transfer: 1. No car insurance or expired insurance: If the vehicle being transferred has no insurance or the insurance has expired, the new owner should purchase insurance as needed. Terminate the original owner's insurance policy and arrange new insurance under the new owner's name. 2. Transfer considerations: When transferring ownership, you need to bring documents such as the original insurance policy, vehicle registration certificate, and vehicle transfer invoice. For insurance transfer, both the buyer and seller must visit the insurance company with the original insurance documents to update the policyholder information. Compulsory traffic insurance (CTPL) policies cannot be canceled—only transferred. Vehicles without CTPL cannot be transferred.
