What does it mean to deregister a car. How to deregister a car: tips and tricks

The car has been deregistered, can I drive it? In 2013, changes were made obliging to register the purchased car in the name of the new owner, non-compliance with which entails the imposition of penalties.

Situations when you have to drive a deregistered car most often arise when selling a car.

Until 2013, deregistration was a prerequisite for the sale of a vehicle, and without this it was impossible to sell the car. Since 2013, the procedure for selling a car has changed somewhat, and this has ceased to be a necessity. These rules also allow the former owner to cancel the registration of the car after 10 days. In which cases this is possible will be discussed below.

In accordance with the administrative regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1001 of November 24, 2008, the purchaser is obliged to register a car in his name, who must immediately begin these actions within 10 days after the purchase of the vehicle.

The new regulation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 605 of August 07, 2013 determined the rules in the design of the vehicle. According to this document, the previous registration of a car after a purchase and sale transaction is canceled automatically when the purchaser registers the car in his name. Therefore, it is not necessary to deregister the car before the deal with the traffic police.

Even with a strong desire, the seller will not be able to do this, since the new rules define only 5 cases of termination of clearance:

1. loss of a car;
2. vehicle theft;
3. the end of the limited clearance period;
4. the seller's statement after ten days after the sale and purchase transaction;
5. termination of the lease agreement.

Thus, the former owner does not have the right to terminate registration in order to sell the car. This is possible only after ten days from the date of sale, and only if the buyer has not yet registered the car in his name. Previously, this was not possible.

Accordingly, the answer to the question: “the car has been deregistered, can I drive it?” Sounds like this. If the previous owner nevertheless canceled the registration of the car, then the buyer has no right to use it until he registers it in his name.

How is driving a deregistered car?

Many drivers ask themselves the question: “is it possible to drive a deregistered car?”, and practice shows that motorists find tricks and continue to ride in such a vehicle.

If the car is deregistered, how to drive it?

There are several ways to drive a deregistered car:

1. The drivers of such a car diligently go around all the traffic police posts in order to avoid checks and fines, however, this method is practically not effective, since in the conditions of the modern system of checks on the roads, this is impossible to do, sooner or later such an offender will fall into the field of view of the traffic police, and will be brought to justice. responsibility.
2. The other way is more effective, but at the same time very painstaking, and requires more care. Motorists continue to drive on an unregistered vehicle, signing a new contract of sale every few days, or do not put a date there at all, indicating it only at the time of verification by law enforcement agencies.

Both methods are illegal, and naturally entail punishment. All these tricks do not give any guarantees that the car will not be stopped by the highway patrol, and the violator will still have to register the car.

Very often situations arise when a person acquires a car, but the former owner removes the vehicle from registration. This can happen if the buyer has not fully paid for the object of the sale and purchase agreement, or has delayed the registration of the car for himself. The law defines a 10-day period during which the purchaser is obliged to do this, and the seller's act is quite understandable. If the buyer does not register the car in his own name, then all fines and taxes will continue to come in the name of the former owner, which is unprofitable for him.

In cases with a bona fide purchaser, the problem can be solved by issuing a re-registration in the name of the new owner. The procedure for a new registration is not complicated, and occurs in the same way as the registration of any other vehicle.

To do this, you need to contact the relevant registration authority with the following documents:

1. car passport;
2. cars;
3. a pre-executed document on car insurance and driver liability;
4. document on the completed car purchase transaction.

It is important to note that the vehicle sales contract is the most important document. In case of loss, the buyer will need to look for the former owner to sign a new contract. Otherwise, it will not be possible to confirm the fact of the transaction to a bona fide purchaser.

According to the new rules, the buyer is obliged to register the purchased vehicle within ten days from the date of purchase. If the car is deregistered, is it possible to drive it? Yes, during this time, the new owner can operate the specified vehicle without a state number, without fear of being held accountable.

However, very often buyers, for various reasons, cannot register the car in the allotted time. Some drivers do it on purpose, someone cannot pass a technical inspection, and someone simply does not have time due to a long queue at the registration authority.

So, for driving on unregistered vehicles, the following penalties are provided:

1. For driving a car without registration, you can be fined in the amount of 500 to 800 rubles. However, you need to know that this size is assumed at the first stop. A repeated violation threatens to increase the fine to 5,000 rubles or possibly confiscate a driver's license with a ban on driving. In general, this sanction is applied only when an unregistered car is stopped during a road check by law enforcement officers. If such a car is taken by a tow truck, then the specified fine is not imposed.
2. For violation of the 10-day period allotted for registration, if such is obligatory, a fine is also imposed in the amount of 1,500 to 2,000 rubles for citizens, for a person in the performance of official duties - from 2,000 to 3,500 rubles, for an organization from 5,000 up to 10,000 rubles. It is important to know here that a fine is automatically imposed on a person who applied with documents to the registration authority to register a car, but did not have time to do this in due time. Moreover, a fine is imposed even if the car is taken by a tow truck.

Thus, do not delay with the registration of the purchased car, and register it in the near future.

The time during which they can bring to administrative responsibility for these violations is determined by two months.

According to the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of February 20, 2015 N 31-AD15-4, non-compliance with the registration period is not considered to be lasting, respectively, this rule can be applied to the specified offense.

The violating driver will be held liable by imposing penalties only in the situation when he registers the vehicle after the prescribed ten days have passed, and earlier than two months and ten days from the date of conclusion of the sales contract.

Thus, after 2 months and 11 days, it is no longer possible to impose a fine, and the driver just needs to wait out this time.

It was noted above that it is the responsibility of the buyer to register the car after purchase, which must be done within 10 days. But still, practice shows many examples when the new owner, for some reason, does not do this, and then operates the vehicle according to the documents of the previous owner.

In such a situation, all penalties and taxes will naturally go to the former owner, since the state does not know about the change of ownership. Of course, this is unprofitable for the seller, and he can apply to the traffic police department that issued the fine with documents confirming the sale of the movable object (sale or gift agreement).

To prevent such troubles, the seller is advised to keep his copy of the transaction document and copy the passport data of the car with the date of sale, signed by the new owner.

If the buyer grossly violates the rules for registering a vehicle, the previous owner can protect himself from unnecessary fines by exercising the right to cancel registration actions in relation to the transferred car. There is a certain sequence of actions for terminating the registration of a vehicle, if everything is done in order and correctly, then the process itself will not take much time and effort.

To cancel registration actions in relation to the sold vehicle, the previous owner must perform the following actions:

1. Make an appointment at the registration department of the traffic police at a convenient time for him. You can do this directly in the department itself, using the terminal, or sign up online through the website of the traffic police or public services;
2. Collect the necessary documents, this is a mandatory application for the cancellation of registration actions and transaction documents (purchase and sale, or a copy of the passport data of the car);
3. Fill in the application details. This can be done at the reception itself, but in order to save time, it is possible to fill it out in advance. To do this, you need to download and print the required form with the application data on the traffic police website. Next, indicate to which registration department the appeal is sent, your full name, and most importantly: the reason for the termination of registration actions. It is also necessary to indicate the vehicle data and the new owner of the vehicle.
4. Arrive at the registration office at the specified time. Then it is necessary to present the required documents, and if everything is correctly drawn up and presented, the car will be deregistered. Payment of state duty is not required. Just before that, you must make sure that the buyer has not issued the specified transport in his name.

The procedure is not complicated, you need to carefully consider the preparation and collection of documents, after which the car ceases to be registered.

You can restore registration actions in relation to unregistered vehicles in the same manner. After the new registration of the car, the owner is issued registration documents with which you can safely operate the purchased car, since now the provisions of the law are not violated.

If the registration of the car was terminated due to disposal, then in accordance with the new rules, registering the car again is now easier than before. Until that time, it was not possible to do this, with rare exceptions through lengthy litigation. According to the above order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1001, it is possible to register a vehicle registered for disposal if, in fact, this did not happen and the car was not destroyed.

Written articles and responses

Many people think that deregistration of funds and deregistration are the same procedures. In fact, these concepts are somewhat different from each other.

What exactly is the difference between the termination of registration of a vehicle and the deregistration of a vehicle, we will consider in our article.

Definition of concepts

Termination of vehicle registration is a procedure that implies that after a while the car will be registered again.

Deregistration of a vehicle is an operation that is performed in cases where subsequent registration of a car is not provided.

A few years ago, every car owner who wanted to sell a car had to deregister the vehicle. But after the government introduced the ability to sell cars along with numbers, deregistration of vehicles in most cases has lost its relevance.

Let us consider in more detail in which cases the termination of registration of a car is used, and in which cases deregistration is used.

Why is it necessary to terminate the registration of the vehicle or deregister it?

Both procedures are carried out in cases where the owner of the car does not use the vehicle and, therefore, does not want to pay transport tax on it. But since the termination of registration and deregistration of a vehicle are different procedures, the need for them depends on each specific case.

The list with the conditions under which the registration of a car is terminated is regulated by law. So, according to current standards, this procedure can be carried out under the following circumstances:

1. Loss of the vehicle (for example, the car got into an accident and cannot be restored).

2. Car theft.

3. End of the vehicle registration period for a limited period.

4. Sale of the vehicle and subsequent termination of registration (if the new owner of the vehicle has not registered the vehicle, then after 10 days after the sale you can contact the traffic police to remove it from the register).

5. Termination of the lease agreement at the request of the lessor, provided that the vehicle was registered with the lessee for a limited period.

As for deregistration of a car, this procedure can be carried out only in two cases:

Export of a vehicle outside Russia for permanent residence;

Vehicle recycling.

Most often, the need to terminate the registration of the vehicle arises due to the sale of the car. It is not uncommon for situations when, having transferred the rights to a car to a new owner, the former owner does not know whether the vehicle has been registered or not. In this case, you need to do the following:

1. Wait 10 days from the date of sale of the car, because. this is the period given to the new owner to register the vehicle with the traffic police.

2. At the end of 10 days after the transaction, contact the traffic police department with a request to terminate the registration of the vehicle. To do this, you must provide documents confirming the sale of the car (contract of sale).

If the new owner did not have time to register the car, after you contact the traffic police, the registration will be terminated automatically.

How to fill out an application for termination of vehicle registration and deregistration?

In order to carry out the procedure for terminating the registration of a car or deregistering a vehicle, it is necessary to fill out an application of the established form.

Please note that the form has a single form for all registration actions, and when filling it out, you only have to emphasize the desired situation.

The implementation of any event related to visiting the MREO makes car owners want to delay this procedure for the maximum possible time. However, in the regulatory documents there is a clear indication of the circumstances, procedure and deadlines for deregistration or termination of registration of the vehicle. How can I perform this procedure quickly and without much hassle? Under what circumstances do you need to act on your own, and under what circumstances only to exercise control over the performance of duties by the new owner of the car? What documents do you need to prepare and where to submit them? Let's try to deal with these issues in the article.

Is there a difference in concepts?

It is necessary to know that previously the above concepts differed significantly. Termination of registration was a temporary procedure and assumed the future registration of the car. The vehicle was deregistered if there was no need to register it again. In the new rules introduced on July 10, 2017, these concepts were combined. This greatly facilitated the position of car owners, who now do not need to get confused when performing the actions described above.

Even earlier, in 2014, the event of deregistration of a car during an operation to alienate it (sale, exchange, donation, etc.) was simplified. Now these obligations are assigned to the new owner of the car. This does not mean that the deregistration procedure has been abolished. It has only undergone changes and occurs simultaneously with the registration of a car for a new owner.

When should one or the other procedure be used?

The procedures for terminating registration and deregistration are regulated by the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation No. 605 “On Approval of the Administrative Regulations”. The normative act determines the grounds for the implementation of the procedure, and also prescribes the procedure and necessary documents for this. Thus, an operation to deregister a vehicle or terminate its registration is required if there are the following grounds (which are prescribed in the administrative regulation, clause 60):

• Car deprivation. For example, if he gets into an accident, after which it is impossible to restore the car;
• Car theft;
• End of the registration period (when registering the vehicle for a limited time);
• Realization of a car (if the new owner has not fulfilled his obligations to register it within 10 days);
• The application of the lessor upon termination of the agreement on car rental in connection with its registration to the lessee for a certain period of time;
• Export of the vehicle outside the Russian Federation for a long period of time;
• Selling a car for scrap;
• Making changes in the device of a car that were not coordinated with the traffic police (violation of clause 3 of the registration rules);
• The death of the owner of the vehicle or the termination of the operation of the enterprise for which it was listed;
• Transfer of the car to the insurer (for making payments to them) or to the center for its sale (in case of an exchange due to a factory defect).

You can also deregister for the purpose of exemption from paying transport tax, if the car is not used for its intended purpose. In each of the above cases, it is possible to re-register the vehicle, if such a need arises. Accordingly, during disposal, if the car was really destroyed, it will not be necessary to restore the registration.

In connection with the sale of the car

Until 2014, when the owner changed due to the sale of the vehicle, the procedure for its deregistration was carried out by the party that sold its car. The seller was obliged to collect the entire document package, stop registering the car in his name, obtain transit numbers and provide all this to the purchaser. Often, the new owner of the car immediately turned to this department of the traffic police with documentation and an application for registering it in his name. To simplify this event and save time for car owners and MREO employees, changes were made to the administrative regulations. Now, when selling a vehicle, the selling party does not need to visit the MREO together with its purchaser and control the re-registration. She needs to sign the passport for the vehicle and draw up a contract of sale. Further, the algorithm of actions for removing / registering a car is as follows:

• The new owner submits a set of documentation to the registration window, which includes:
  • applicant's passport;
  • a document confirming the transaction for the implementation of the TS;
  • a receipt proving the payment of state fees;
• Experts inspect the car, check the numbers on its units with those indicated in the provided documentation, and evaluate the vehicle. Based on the results of the check, an act is issued, which is transferred to the hands of the car owner;
• MREO employees check the car for various bases:
  • for the presence of an encumbrance (if the car was bought on credit, then it can be sold before the contract is closed only with the permission of the credit institution);
  • for the presence of forensic specialists in the database (whether they are wanted in connection with theft or participation in a crime).
• Traffic police officers verify the data specified in the documents with those in their database;
• The owner is given a list of taxes and fees, which make up the cost of the operation for deregistration / registration of the vehicle (tax on the car, payment for the appraiser, transport fees);
• The car owner (upon successful completion of all stages) is awarded a document package:
  • TCP as amended;
  • payment document confirming the payment of taxes and fees;
  • registration numbers.

The new administrative regulation, which entered into force on October 15, 2013, assigned the state number to the vehicle, therefore, when it is sold within the region or outside it, the change of registration plates is not required. However, the old owner may wish to keep the state signs for himself, then he will write an application and leave them for storage at the traffic police for up to 180 days.

When disposing

If you want to subject your car to recycling, you should first find an organization that deals with these activities and draw up an agreement with it for the operation. Then you should stop registering the vehicle, for the above reason, in the MREO. If you plan to completely scrap the car, then the procedure belongs to the category of office work and does not require inspection. If the car owner plans not to dispose of some of the units, then they need to be inspected and the numbers checked by experts, who, based on the results of the check, will issue a conclusion. If the vehicle cannot move independently, then specialists are called to the place of its parking. To remove the car from the register, due to its scrapping, you should proceed as follows:

• The car owner should visit the MREO with a prepared set of papers, which includes:
  • owner's passport;
  • car passport;
  • a certificate certifying the registration of the vehicle;
  • state numbers on the car;
  • application for deregistration due to disposal;
  • payment document confirming the payment of the state fee.
• When the car is completely scrapped, the traffic police (after checking the documentation) issue a certificate of termination of its registration;
• When saving car parts that have a number, you should:
  • pay the state duty for the abandoned unit;
  • add to the document package an expert opinion and a receipt proving the payment of the above state fee;
  • transfer the documentation to the MREO employee, who will write out a paper about the released unit.

By law, a car deregistered for the reason described above must be subjected to a recycling procedure within a month. The owner of such a vehicle is not entitled to sell, donate, change or carry out other activities with it.

In connection with the theft of a car

If the vehicle was stolen, then its owner should go to the police station and write an appropriate statement, which will serve as the basis for initiating a criminal case. Then you need to contact the traffic police department to remove the stolen car from the register. The following documents are required for this procedure:

• Passport of the owner of the stolen car;
• Written notification from the investigating authorities;
• Passport for the vehicle (if any);
• Owner's statement.

In the event that the transport is found by the investigating authorities and returned to its owner, then it must again be registered with the MREO. Under certain circumstances, the law allows deregistration of the vehicle forcibly. This is allowed by a court decision, which reflects the requirement to return or transfer the car to another citizen.

When changing place of residence

If the owner of the transport has changed his permanent place of residence to another, then it is necessary to register the car at the place of the new registration of the owner. The owner should go through the procedure for obtaining a new vehicle registration document. It is not necessary to visit the previous department in which it was registered. The algorithm of actions for deregistration / registration of a car in this case is as follows:

• Come to the traffic police department at the new place of residence and announce to its employee that there is a need to register transport for the above reason;
• Fill out an application for this event;
• Submit the following documentation along with it:
  • passport;
  • certificate of registration of the vehicle;
  • policy from the insurer;
  • a receipt certifying the payment of the state duty;
• Present the car for inspection;
• Obtain from the inspector a new certificate of registration of the vehicle and title, with an entry made there about the change of place of residence.

In order not to run into a fine, the above actions must be carried out within ten days from the date of registration in a new place. Do not forget about the insurance policy. It is necessary to visit the insurance company and rewrite the document for a new place of registration, which is indicated in the passport. Otherwise, if you get into an accident, insurance payments may be denied, citing a mismatch of information in the documentation.

The procedure for terminating registration is different if the owner leaves the Russian Federation with his vehicle. Under such circumstances, it is imperative to remove it from the register at the previous place of registration, hand over the numbers, obtain transit license plates and permission to export the vehicle abroad (it is issued after checking for the absence of encumbrances, penalties, arrest, etc.). In the line of the application, as the grounds for deregistration of the car, you must indicate the country to which the citizen is leaving. The inspector has the right to ask a question (if necessary) about the purpose of driving the car or require the submission of additional documentation. You can only move on transit numbers for 20 days, so you should go through the procedure for terminating registration just before leaving. Such a scheme of actions should be followed when selling a car to a foreigner.

What to do if the car is not registered?

In the event that the purchaser of the car did not register it within the time allotted by law (10 days), but uses the car for its intended purpose, and penalties for violation of traffic rules and tax are issued to the previous owner, then he should pay a visit to the MREO in order to alienate the vehicle tools with the following documentation:

• A written statement containing information that the vehicle has been sold and is the property of another citizen;
• Photocopies of the entire documentation package for the vehicle;
• A photocopy of the completed transaction for its sale (contract).

When concluding a sale and purchase agreement, a note is made in the passport on the car about the change of ownership with the obligatory date of the transaction and the signatures of the parties. For safety net, the implementing party needs to make and keep a photocopy of the TCP, with the mark made. If the new car owner did not appear at the MREO within ten days, then the seller must notify the traffic police about the transaction. After that, a search will be made for the purchaser. If during this period fines were imposed on him and taxes were charged that were received in the name of the former owner, then he will not register the car for himself until he closes all debts.

Conclusion

Termination of registration or deregistration of a car will not cause any special difficulties for car owners if they carefully read this information and carefully prepare the event to be carried out. They should also know that they can further facilitate the procedure by using the State Services portal, where it is possible to submit an application electronically, avoiding paperwork and long pastime in queues at the traffic police departments.

Despite the simplification of the procedure for registering vehicles (TC), the procedure for deregistration or termination of vehicle registration causes difficulties for many car owners.

In the presented article, we will try to set out in detail the grounds for deregistration of vehicles and explain the entire mechanism for passing this procedure.

Innovations in the procedure for registering cars

Thanks to changes in the regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for registration of vehicles, the procedure for registration and deregistration has been significantly simplified:

1. When selling vehicles are simply re-registered for a new owner without first deregistration and delivery of license plates.
2. When changing residence also eliminated the need to deregister the car. A car owner who has moved to another region only needs to register the vehicle at a new place of registration. The removal of the car at the same address occurs automatically without the participation of the owner.
3. In the event of the expiration of the temporary registration of the vehicle there is no need to deregister the car. The registration is terminated automatically, the information is entered into the traffic police database, while the registration documents and license plates issued for the car are invalidated.

The presented video outlines the main changes in the procedure for accounting for vehicles, which came into force on October 15, 2013:

When to deregister a car

Despite the simplification of the procedure for registering vehicles, there are still cases in which it is required to deregister a car:

1. Disposal. Having resorted to the state program for recycling, the car is removed from registration in order to stop taxation on this property.
2. Export abroad. If the car leaves the country forever, it must be deregistered with subsequent registration in the country of arrival.
3. Theft. When such illegal actions are committed in relation to your property, it is recommended that you immediately contact the traffic police department with a statement to terminate the registration of the vehicle.
4. End of the allotted period of 10 days for re-registration of the vehicle upon sale, serves as the basis for the seller to submit to the traffic police an application to terminate the registration of the sold car. Thus, the former owner will protect himself from imposing liability in the event that the sold car gets into an accident, and is also exempt from accruing transport tax.

Removal procedure

The owners of the vehicle or persons acting in the interests of the owner by proxy have the right to apply to the traffic police for any registration actions with the car.

The rules regulate the following procedure for deregistration of a vehicle:

Step 1. Preparation of necessary documents. The list of documents varies depending on the reasons for deregistration.

The provision of an incomplete set of documents, as well as documents containing false information or drawn up inconsistently with the requirements of regulatory legal acts, is a reason for refusing to accept an application for the provision of registration services.

Step 2. Appeal to the traffic police department. You can apply for deregistration both personally and through the online service on the website of the State Traffic Inspectorate or directly through the Internet portal of the State Service.

Now car owners have the opportunity to deregister a car at any convenient traffic police department, regardless of the place of registration, address of residence or registration of the owner.

Step 3. Receipt of an application form. The application is filled out according to the model by hand directly at the traffic police department or is issued in advance in printed form and signed by the applicant.

(Word file in .doc format)

The traffic police officer checks the submitted documents using the federal information system for interdepartmental electronic interaction (SMEV).

Step 4. Inspection of a car in the traffic police is carried out in case of export of the vehicle abroad.

Step 5. Payment of state duty. The cost and procedure for payment for the services provided is also determined depending on the reasons for deregistration of the vehicle.

Step 6. The result of the actions taken will be the adoption by the traffic police officer of a decision to remove the vehicle from registration or issue a reasoned refusal.

The administrative regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs determine that the time spent in the queue when submitting an application for the provision of a service, as well as when receiving results, should not exceed 15 minutes. The term for the provision of the service for carrying out registration actions should not exceed 60 minutes from the moment the application and documents are received.

Let us consider in detail the procedure for the provision of services, depending on the grounds for deregistration of the vehicle.

Disposal

The following categories of vehicles are subject to the recycling procedure:

• further operation of which is impossible;
• complete disrepair of transport, dismantling for spare parts is impossible.

To pass the procedure, the owner of the vehicle at the traffic police department will need to submit:

• state signs on the vehicle;
• passport;
• passport of the vehicle (PTS);
• technical coupon of the vehicle;
• deregistration application.

Documents on the registration of the car, title and license plate are handed over if available, and in the future are subject to disposal.

This type of service is not subject to state duty, deregistration is free of charge.

It is not required to present the car to the traffic police for inspection.

The car recycling program allows you to go through the deregistration procedure without a car and without documents for it.

Export of the vehicle outside the country

The following documents are required to deregister a car that is going to permanently reside in another state:

• state signs on the vehicle;
• certificate of registration (STS);
• passport;
• a power of attorney, in case of a request from a representative of the owner of the vehicle;
• passport of the vehicle (PTS);
• technical coupon of the vehicle;
• receipt for payment of state duty.

Vehicle inspection

Car check is carried out on the allotted area. The body color, license plates of the car are checked and the authenticity of the vehicle is established. The design of the vehicle is checked for compliance with accompanying documents and safety standards.

It is necessary to provide a clean car for inspection, especially you should pay attention to the plates with identification numbers against which all documentation will be verified.

The verification procedure takes 20 minutes. All detected inconsistencies and discrepancies are noted in the application and are the basis for an additional check of the vehicle in the police department.

After the successful completion of the inspection, the expert stamps the application, the date and signature.

The results of the inspection are considered valid for 30 days.

Remember that the car body is dirty, the VIN number or state marks are not readable, as well as the glass tinting, headlights painting can serve as reasons for refusing to carry out an inspection.

Service cost

The state duty is paid for the issuance of transit registration plates:

• vehicles - 1600 rubles;
• motorcycle or trailer 800 rubles.

Title and state signs on the car are surrendered and disposed of in the traffic police department. And in return, the car owner receives registration plates “Transit”, while the corresponding mark is put on the STS and a record is made about the departure of the vehicle outside the Russian Federation.

Termination of vehicle registration

When the car owner is faced with the question of the loss or theft of a car, as well as a violation of the rules of a sale and purchase transaction, it is necessary to submit an application to the traffic police department to terminate the registration of the vehicle, which is listed behind it.

To terminate the registration of transport, the owner, if available, submits to the traffic police all registration documents, title and state signs on the car for further disposal. In case of their absence, they are put on the wanted list.

List of required documents:

• state signs on the vehicle;
• certificate of registration (STS);
• passport;
• a power of attorney, in case of a request from a representative of the owner of the vehicle;
• passport of the vehicle (PTS);
• technical coupon of the vehicle;
• a contract of sale, in the absence of actions on the part of the buyer to re-register the car;
• application for deregistration;

The service is provided free of charge.

conclusions

The deregistration procedure is clearly regulated, each stage is strictly limited in time and does not exceed 1 hour in total.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to fill out and submit an electronic application through the State Services portal or on the official website of the traffic police, you can significantly reduce the time for receiving the service and avoid waiting in line. If, during the verification of the submitted documents, inconsistencies are found, you will be notified electronically and you will be able to re-submit the application after eliminating all the shortcomings.

I understand very little about cars and know practically nothing about registering a car with the traffic police. When I registered the purchased car for myself, all the documents were prepared and submitted by my husband.

He also drove the car for inspection, and as a result, I did not take any part in the registration of transport. I don't know anything about deregistration.

A few months ago, I had to go through this procedure, but how to deregister a car, I had no idea. Unfortunately, my husband was on a business trip, and therefore I had to get acquainted with the algorithm of actions on my own.

Upon completion of the process of deregistration of the car, I was able to say that there was nothing complicated about it. My article will help people who do not understand this issue at all, and will tell you what is needed to deregister a car.

A few years ago, deregistration of a car was mandatory. The owner was obliged, together with the buyer of transport, to go to the traffic police and apply for deregistration of the car. Despite the fact that all the actions are simple and clear, it took a lot of time and effort.

After some time, amendments were made to the current legislation, which also affected the described procedure. Now, when concluding a sale and purchase transaction, it is not at all necessary to remove the car from the register, but it is enough that the new owner re-registers the vehicle with the traffic police.

An important requirement was the observance of all conditions and the general procedure for performing the necessary actions. It is noteworthy that after signing the bill of sale, the seller transfers the documents for the car to the new owner, and he performs all the necessary actions for re-registration on his own.

Under what circumstances is it necessary to remove the car

Despite providing citizens with the opportunity to refuse to take actions to remove the car from the state register, there are some situations that require these actions to be performed without fail. It is about the following points:

1. The buyer prefers that the car be deregistered, and the seller performs this action by agreement of the parties to the transaction.
2. The new owner has only ten days to register a car. If at the end of this period the vehicle is not re-registered, then the previous owner will have to deregister the car, otherwise all fines will come to his name.
3. In the event of theft of a vehicle, it may be necessary to temporarily remove the car from state registration. After finding the car, it is put back on the account.
4. When the car gets into an accident, when the transport is no longer subject to restoration and further operation.
5. The procedure is mandatory if the owner plans to leave the Russian Federation and register the car in another country.

Each situation is individual and can be regarded differently, so if the car owner has questions about the upcoming event, then you should contact the traffic police inspector in advance and find out everything you need.

What documents are required

Taking into account the specific circumstances of deregistration of a car, a special set of documentation will be required. There are two packages: general and additional. The main list includes:

• passport or other document confirming the identity of the car owner;
• bill of sale for transport;
• documents for the car (PTS, STS, insurance);
• application in the prescribed form;
• a document confirming the transfer of the fee;
• power of attorney for the right to perform the necessary actions, if required by law.

All documents are prepared by the owner of the vehicle and can be submitted at any inspection department.

The list of additional documentation is determined taking into account special circumstances, namely:

• when stealing a car, you need to file an application with the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
• recycling can be complete or partial. The state duty is paid for specific units, each of which is previously provided for inspection by the traffic police.

In general, the listed documents are enough to deregister a car. If the inspector requests additional paperwork, then the owner of the car will have to prepare and provide them.

Car deregistration process

This procedure does not have any features, and even more than that, it is carried out according to the standard scheme. The first thing a citizen needs to do is to prepare the entire list of required documents and fill out a standard application for deregistration of a car.

The form and sample of filling out the application can be found on the web resource of the traffic police and at the information stand in any division of the inspection. It should be noted that the presence of the car is not necessary for this procedure, and it is enough to present a technical inspection coupon (valid for 20 days).

An important point is the indication in the application of the real reason for deregistration of the transport. The basis presented must be legal and supported by additional documents. After submitting the documents, it remains only to wait for the final decision and receive the papers with the amendments.

Conclusion

As a conclusion, it can be noted that every motorist can perform the steps to remove the car from the state account. It is not at all difficult and does not require additional preparation from a citizen. The only thing that will need to be done is to collect the full package of documentation and pay the established state duty.
