Where to Obtain a Loss Certificate?
2 Answers
The loss certificate is issued by the government of the accident location. Below is a detailed introduction: When the owner of a motor vehicle applies for deregistration, the following documents and certificates should be submitted: 1. The motor vehicle registration certificate. 2. The motor vehicle license. 3. In case of motor vehicle loss, the identity certificate of the motor vehicle owner and the loss certificate should also be submitted. 4. If the motor vehicle is not used within the territory of China for certain reasons, the identity certificate of the motor vehicle owner and the exit certificate should also be submitted. For motor vehicles under customs supervision, the "Notification of Entry (Exit) and Receipt (Cancellation) of License Plates for Customs Supervised Vehicles of the People's Republic of China" issued by the customs should also be submitted.
I just dealt with the issue of the vehicle loss certificate. As a seasoned driver with ten years of experience, I went directly to the local police station to file a report. I explained how the vehicle was lost, whether it was theft or another incident, and they initiated an investigation. After confirming the loss, they issued an official loss certificate. With this certificate in hand, I then had to go to the vehicle management office to complete the vehicle deregistration process to avoid any unexpected violation records in the future. The whole process isn't too complicated, but it's best to bring documents like the owner's ID and the vehicle registration certificate to avoid unnecessary back-and-forth. If the vehicle was stolen, it's advisable to contact the insurance company promptly to file a claim, saving trouble later on. Remember, keeping this certificate safe is crucial, or the vehicle management office might not recognize it.
