What procedures are required for vehicle transfer and file extraction?
2 Answers
Vehicle transfer and file extraction require: vehicle license, owner's ID card, motor vehicle registration certificate, vehicle and vessel usage fee booklet, compulsory traffic insurance policy, additional tax booklet, front and rear license plates, and vehicle annual inspection certificate. All documents should be photocopied in duplicate. Chassis number and engine number rubbings are also needed. Below are the precautions for personal used car transfers: The property certificate must be legal: Pay special attention to the embossed number, engine number, and registration date on the property certificate. Besides verification, check for any signs of alteration, as altered marks may indicate a transaction trap. Check for traffic violation records: Before transferring a personal used car, check if the vehicle has any traffic violation records and whether it is within the validity period of compulsory traffic insurance. Only vehicles with no violations and valid insurance can be processed for transfer. Generally, vehicles with violations cannot be transferred until the violations are resolved. Presence of vehicle purchase tax payment receipt: Always inspect the original vehicle's tax receipt during a personal used car transfer. Some vehicles may not have paid purchase tax, and after transfer, these unpaid or tax-exempt vehicles may be required to pay the purchase tax, which can be a significant expense. Therefore, it is essential to determine who will cover this payment.
I've recently handled the transfer and archiving of several vehicles, and the basic procedures are quite extensive. Both parties need to bring their original ID cards and photocopies, and the vehicle's license and registration certificate are essential. It's best to prepare a sales agreement in advance. You also need to check if the vehicle has any outstanding traffic violations, otherwise the DMV might hold up the process. In practice, you first need to go to the DMV where the vehicle was originally registered to fill out forms and apply for the transfer and archiving, pay the fees, and complete the procedures. After the files are retrieved, they are transferred to the new registration location, where the new owner can complete the license plate registration themselves. The entire process takes at least half a day, with costs including transfer fees and service fees, amounting to a few hundred yuan. By the way, if the vehicle has been involved in an accident or has outstanding loans, these issues must be resolved beforehand to avoid a wasted trip. Finally, it's advisable to get help from a reliable friend or hire an agent to make things easier.
