Motor vehicle registration when transferring to another holder outside the registration district
If a vehicle is to be transferred to a new owner in a different registration district, an application must be submitted to the competent authority in the new registration district. The application can be made in person or by an authorized person.
Who should I contact?
Responsibility lies with the district, the independent city and the municipality, joint municipality and city entrusted with this task.
The main place of residence according to the identity card is decisive. In the case of legal entities, this is the registered office of the main branch or the registered office of the branch.
