Changes in vehicle registration

Registration standards have undergone significant changes in relation to previous periods. New legal acts governing the registration procedure for vehicles will come into effect on July 10 of this year.

• Worn out, damaged license plates will no longer become a reason for refusal to register vehicles. Copies with elements of corrosion and rust will also be accepted for registration.

The obligatory presentation of paper originals of documents after submitting an electronic application has been canceled. The stage of additional expert verification has been abolished. Now, after filling out an application on the Internet, the owner of the car has the right to immediately come to the specified traffic police department for a technical inspection.
• If the owner eliminated the reason why the car was removed from the register, he can easily restore the registration.
• The list of grounds for refusal to register has received tangible changes. The new list includes many significant adjustments and additions.
• You can pay for insurance and issue an electronic version of the OSAGO policy on the Internet. However, the printed copy should be placed in the machine.
• When buying a vehicle from another owner, the new owner should not change the license plates, it is allowed to leave the old ones.
• It is no longer necessary to deregister a car to sell it.
• The vehicle accounting database has become unified. If you change your place of residence, you do not need to register again. A project is being prepared to abolish regional identification numbers.
