What procedures are required for vehicle transfer?
2 Answers
Procedures required for vehicle transfer include: 1. The buyer must provide their ID card and prepare three copies; 2. The seller must bring the vehicle's license, ID card, vehicle registration certificate, original purchase invoice or second-hand vehicle transfer ticket, and prepare one copy of each, plus three copies of their ID card. The second-hand vehicle sales contract is extremely important in the vehicle transfer process. Before signing, it is essential to ensure the contract is standardized and that vehicle information is transparent to prevent unscrupulous individuals from exploiting loopholes in the contract to the buyer's detriment. The complete vehicle purchase tax certificate, road maintenance fee procedures, compulsory insurance, etc., are generally included in the second-hand vehicle sales contract template.
I just transferred a used car at the DMV, and honestly, the whole process was quite a hassle. Basic documents must be prepared: two copies each of the original and photocopied IDs of both the original and new owners, the vehicle registration certificate (the big green book), the vehicle license, and the original owner’s signed consent form. Both parties need to go to the DMV to fill out the transfer application form, pay the deed tax and transfer fees—usually a few hundred bucks will cover it. The DMV officer will inspect the car and check the chassis number, and only release it after verification. Make sure all traffic violation fines are cleared; don’t miss any or it’ll hold things up. After completion, collect the new vehicle license and get the big green book updated. Last time, I forgot to bring the ID photocopies and wasted half a day, so I recommend going early with backup copies. After the transfer, remember to notify the insurance company to update the policyholder info to avoid any issues with claims in case of an accident.
