Must the owner be present for new car registration?

[MacPeter]

New car registration does not require the owner to be present, but the vehicle must be driven to the registration office with the following documents: original and photocopy of the owner's ID, purchase invoice, original tax payment certificate or tax exemption voucher for vehicle purchase tax, original third copy of compulsory traffic insurance certificate, and the vehicle's factory certificate for domestically produced cars or import certificate for imported vehicles. If an agent handles the process, a power of attorney from the owner and the agent's ID and photocopy are also required. The new car registration process at the DMV includes: 1. Purchasing insurance for the new car; 2. Paying vehicle purchase tax; 3. New car inspection; 4. Document submission; 5. Vehicle inspection; 6. License plate selection; 7. Receiving vehicle documents; 8. Paying vehicle and vessel tax.
