What are the steps for cross-region used car transactions?

Consult the local vehicle registration requirements to ensure the area accepts this vehicle. Bring both parties' ID cards, vehicle registration certificate, license plate, engine rubbing strip. The buyer needs local ID card or residence permit. Drive the vehicle to the vehicle registration service station to complete outbound transfer procedures. After the files arrive at the destination, drive there to complete vehicle registration procedures.
Last time I bought a used car from out of town, the whole process went quite smoothly. First, I negotiated the price with the seller and signed an agreement, making sure the car had complete documents, such as the registration certificate, driving license, and a copy of the ID card. Then, we went together to the vehicle management office at the original registration location to complete the transfer, filling out forms and paying fees to get it done, receiving a file bag called 'transfer file'. After returning to my city, I immediately went to the local vehicle management office to complete the registration transfer, thus transferring the ownership. The key is not to overlook the vehicle inspection part—I had a friend help check the engine and chassis to avoid buying a car that had been in an accident. For transportation, I drove the car back myself to save costs. Throughout the process, it's important to pay attention to tax and fee differences in different places, check policies in advance, and get everything done in two or three days—it’s actually quite worthwhile.
