The car's green book is called the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate. Below is relevant information about the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate: Functions of the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate: The Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate is a necessary property ownership document for the vehicle, kept by the vehicle owner and not carried with the vehicle. It is required for any vehicle registration procedures such as transferring ownership or changing registration details, and records relevant information about the vehicle, serving as the vehicle's household registration book. It is printed and issued along with the vehicle license plate and driving permit when the vehicle is registered. Process for Replacing the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate: To apply for a replacement of the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate, the vehicle owner must bring the vehicle to the vehicle management office. If the vehicle owner is a natural person applying for a replacement of the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate, they must appear in person to apply and cannot delegate the task to someone else. If the vehicle owner cannot appear in person due to reasons such as death, being abroad, severe illness or disability, or force majeure, relevant proof must be provided.
Last time I sold a used car, I finally understood what the 'green book' is actually called—it's the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate. This green booklet isn't something you take out often, but it shows up at critical moments like during vehicle transfers or sales. I remember going to the DMV for some business, and without it, they wouldn't even assist me because it proves the car is registered under my name, containing key details like the engine number and chassis number. You've got to keep it safe, tucked away in a cabinet at home, because losing it means a hassle to get a replacement. Once, a friend had his car stolen, and the first thing the police asked when he reported it was where the green book was, saying it helps trace the vehicle's origin. In short, this thing is like the car's ID card—while you don't need to worry about it for daily driving, without it when you really need it, you're stuck.
