What is required for vehicle transfer?
1 Answers
Vehicle transfer can be processed on Saturday mornings, but not on Saturday afternoons or Sundays. This is because vehicle inspection is required, and the vehicle management office system is not open on Saturday afternoons and Sundays, making inspections impossible. The working hours of the vehicle management office follow national regulations, operating eight hours a day from Monday to Friday, with weekends off. However, some areas may have staff on duty during weekends. Vehicle transfer process: Go to the relevant department's transfer hall, present the required materials, and obtain the "Used Vehicle Sales Contract." Both parties fill out the information separately. (Take all completed documents to process the "transfer acceptance.") Drive the vehicle to the transfer inspection area, where staff will inspect it, take impressions of the vehicle identification number, remove the license plate, and take photos. Attach the vehicle photo to the inspection record form after receiving it. (After completion, park the vehicle in the parking lot and proceed to the transfer hall for further procedures.) Take a number from the dispenser and queue with the relevant materials to pay the transfer fees. The owner takes the relevant files back to the local vehicle management office where the vehicle will be registered and completes the vehicle registration process. Vehicle transfer documents: For the seller: Owner's ID card: Present the owner's ID card to prove their legal citizen status. Vehicle registration certificate: The vehicle registration certificate serves as the vehicle's ID and is the legal proof of ownership. It records the vehicle's details and is crucial in used car transactions. The seller must present it to demonstrate ownership. Vehicle license: The vehicle license is the legal document permitting the vehicle to operate on roads. According to Article 8 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," vehicles must be registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority before being allowed on roads. Therefore, the vehicle license is an essential document for vehicle transfer. Original purchase invoice or transfer receipt: If the original vehicle invoice is lost, the transfer cannot be processed, and reissuing the invoice is complicated. If the seller is an organization, the original organizational code certificate and official seal are also required. Be cautious of fraudsters selling company vehicles without authorization, which could lead to unnecessary legal disputes. For the buyer: ID card: The buyer must also present their ID card to prove their legal citizen status. If the buyer is from another region but wants to register the vehicle locally, they must present a valid temporary residence permit (residence permit). PS: Ensure it is a valid temporary residence permit. If the buyer is an organization, the original organizational code certificate and official seal are required. For out-of-town transfers: Purchase tax booklet: Before 2001, it was red; after 2001, it became green. Pay attention to the color. For both parties: Used vehicle sales contract: The used vehicle sales contract is extremely important in the vehicle transfer process. Before signing, ensure the contract is standardized and vehicle information is transparent. Additionally, the complete vehicle purchase tax certificate, road maintenance fee procedures, and compulsory insurance are usually included in the used vehicle sales contract sample.
