When Can I Get the New Vehicle Certificate of Conformity?

When purchasing a new car, the certificate of conformity must accompany the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the certificate is delivered with the new car. However, if you purchase through installment payments, you will only receive the certificate after the loan is fully repaid. This is a national regulation, meaning the certificate arrives when the car arrives, and you take both the car and the certificate at the time of delivery. Additional Information: 1. The certificate of conformity is another important document for a vehicle and is required for vehicle registration. Only vehicles with this certificate meet the national standards for motor vehicle equipment quality and related requirements. 2. The purchase invoice is the most crucial proof when buying a car and is also one of the documents needed for registration. Therefore, always request the purchase invoice from the dealer and verify its validity. 3. Users must operate the vehicle according to the instructions in the user manual. If damage occurs due to non-compliance with the manual's guidelines, the manufacturer will not be responsible for the warranty. The user manual also specifies the vehicle's main technical parameters and the necessary technical data for maintenance and adjustments, serving as a reference for repairs.

When I bought my new car last year, the whole process went quite smoothly, and I received the vehicle certificate on the day of pickup. I remember that after I paid the final installment of the car payment, the salesperson handed me a document folder containing the certificate, invoice, and warranty manual. He specifically emphasized that the certificate was essential for registration and reminded me to keep it safe. At the time, I asked why it couldn’t be given later, and he explained that if the dealer was using the certificate as collateral for a loan, there might be a delay of a few days, but it’s best to avoid such situations to prevent affecting the registration timeline. Later, I used the certificate myself at the DMV and successfully registered the car within a day or two without any issues. Overall, as long as the payment is settled in full, you can usually get the certificate on the spot. If there’s a delay, it’s important to urge the dealer promptly to avoid disrupting your travel plans. In short, the vehicle certificate is a crucial document, and the timing of receiving it directly impacts the efficiency of subsequent procedures.

As sellers, our standard procedure when selling new cars is to deliver the vehicle certificate during the handover after the customer has fully paid for the vehicle. Generally, when customers come to pick up their cars, we prepare all the documents in advance, including the certificate, and hand them over to the customer while signing the receipt. I've noticed that some people worry about not receiving the certificate, but we usually ensure it's done on the spot unless the certificate is used as short-term financing collateral. In such cases, we promise to mail it within a week. The key is not to keep customers waiting too long, as delays in registration could lead to fines or insurance issues. Having handled this multiple times myself, I advise customers to confirm the delivery time when signing the contract, just in case. Keeping the vehicle certificate safe is the first major step in car ownership.

When I bought the car, the dealer gave me the vehicle qualification certificate directly on the day of pickup. After paying the full amount, the salesperson handed me the certificate along with other documents, emphasizing that it was essential for registration and must be the original. If they don't give it to you, it might be because the dealership is using the certificate for a loan, so you should quickly inquire about the reason. I used this certificate to register my car without any trouble.
