For second-hand vehicle transfers, a residence permit is required if the owner is not a local resident. The following documents are required for vehicle transfer: Seller must provide: owner's ID card, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, original purchase invoice or transfer receipt. Buyer must provide: ID card/temporary residence permit within validity period. If the seller/buyer is an organization, the following are also required: original organization code certificate and official seal. Documents required for vehicle transfer: Original vehicle license. Original motor vehicle registration certificate. One standard photo of the motor vehicle. Original and photocopy of the new owner's identity proof. Original "Motor Vehicle Registration, Transfer, Cancellation/Transfer Application Form". Original or photocopy of proof or certificate of motor vehicle ownership transfer. Original motor vehicle inspection record form (with standard vehicle photo and chassis number rubbing attached). "Power of Attorney" and agent's identity proof (for motor vehicle registration and related business handled by an agent). Vehicle transfer first requires a vehicle evaluation, with evaluation fees generally charged at 1%-2% of the evaluated vehicle price. Original commercial vehicle insurance can be canceled (compulsory insurance cannot be canceled), or the insurance can be transferred to the buyer at the insurance company. Precautions when purchasing a used car: Incomplete procedures. Complete procedures for a used car include: vehicle registration certificate (or original purchase invoice), vehicle license, vehicle purchase tax payment certificate, road maintenance fee procedures, and compulsory insurance, etc. Missing vehicle registration certificates or licenses, or unpaid compulsory insurance or road maintenance fees, can cause endless trouble for the buyer. Therefore, when purchasing a car, if the seller cannot provide complete procedures, consumers should be especially cautious. Tampering with the odometer. Most consumers prefer to judge a car's condition by the odometer, and sellers often take advantage of this by tampering with the odometer. In fact, the odometer is not just an indicator of usage intensity but also a recorder for the maintenance and replacement of other vehicle parts. If buyers follow the maintenance schedule based on a tampered odometer, it can lead to a series of potential safety hazards. New paint covering external damage. When consumers purchase a used car, if the car has been repainted and there are signs of repair around the front, rear, and A, B, C pillars, the car may have been involved in a major accident. Adjusting the engine to raise the price. Many consumers focus too much on the car's engine when buying a car and neglect the health of the car body. Used car sellers take advantage of this by replacing engine parts to make the engine appear younger, thereby raising the price.
