Government Eases Vehicle Registration and Ownership Transfer Procedures
Summary
The government has amended transport procedures to make vehicle registration and ownership transfer easier, removing the need for owners to appear in person at transport offices. Authorized dealers, power-of-attorney representatives and biometric access for sellers and distributors will now help streamline the process.
Key Points
- The government has amended the Transport Management Procedures Directive, 2060, to simplify registration and ownership transfer for new and used vehicles.
- Vehicle owners will no longer need to be physically present at transport offices, and inspections done by authorized dealers will be accepted.
- A person authorized through power of attorney can complete the process on behalf of the purchaser with the required identification documents.
- The revised system also removes physical-presence requirements for insurance-related procedures and adds technical access for biometric collection through the Vehicle Registration System (VRS).
