Is it necessary for the owner to be present for a used car transfer?
1 Answers
Generally, it is required. However, if the owner is unable to personally handle the transfer procedures due to certain reasons, they can also authorize someone else to handle it on their behalf. To authorize someone else, a power of attorney must be written, which should include a photocopy of the owner's ID card and their signature. Additionally, the original ID card, original vehicle license, and vehicle registration certificate should be handed over to the authorized person to complete the transfer at the vehicle management office. Documents required for used car transfer: 1. Seller unable to attend: If the seller cannot be present, they need to find a local agent with a local ID card or temporary residence permit to assist in the process. The seller must also prepare the following documents for the agent: original and photocopy of the original owner's ID card; original and photocopy of the vehicle's motor vehicle registration certificate; original and photocopy of the vehicle license; the vehicle must be present. 2. Buyer unable to attend: If the buyer cannot be present, they also need to find a local agent with a local ID card or temporary residence permit to assist in the process. The buyer must prepare the following documents for the agent: original ID card of the buyer; for non-local residents registering a local license plate, a valid temporary residence permit or residence permit must be provided.
