Is it possible to transfer ownership without filing transfer?

[NovaRose]

It is possible to transfer ownership without filing transfer, as filing transfer is equivalent to transferring the vehicle's records, but the ownership still remains with the original owner. When purchasing a second-hand motor vehicle with an out-of-town license plate and intending to register the vehicle locally, filing transfer is required. Filing transfer refers to the transfer of the vehicle's records. Ownership transfer only changes the identity of the owner, while filing transfer involves extracting the vehicle's records from location A and bringing them to location B for registration. Filing transfer process: Obtain a second-hand vehicle transaction invoice, take rubbings of the chassis and engine numbers (if not visible to the naked eye, have them done at a repair shop), remove the license plate for photography, verify the records at the archives, inspect the vehicle, submit the application at the vehicle management office, and package the vehicle management office records, known as the "major file".
