At the moment, deregistration of the car is not a prerequisite, because. when new owner performs registration actions, this is done automatically. But what if the new owner has not registered the vehicle within 10 days and how to remove the car from the register?

Often, dishonest buyers are in no hurry to register a vehicle, and there can be many reasons for this:

• savings on transport tax (and the higher the tax, the more likely that the client will try to delay the registration of the vehicle);
• savings on fines when shooting violations with automatic recording cameras, they will be recorded on the seller, who will have to pay.

In this case, after you rent the car, it is possible to go to court against the person who was supposed to make the withdrawal (the buyer) and recover the losses incurred in court.

Self-withdrawal by the seller

If the other party to the contract does not re-register vehicle on himself, then the seller himself will need to make a withdrawal after the sale. In order to deregister a car, the seller must prepare the following set of documents:

1. a contract for the sale of a vehicle that was drawn up no earlier than 10 days ago;
2. a statement of the established form on deregistration of the car upon sale;
3. applicant's passport;
4. copies of the transport documentation (without them, it will be difficult to remove the car from the registration - that is why, before selling the vehicle, it is recommended to make copies);
5. receipt for payment of state duty.

After receiving the application, authorized employees of the State Traffic Inspectorate consider the application and decide whether to deregister or refuse.

Refusal by employees of the State traffic inspectorate may be issued if the car is encumbered or arrested.

Buyer's responsibility

The legislation provides for bringing the buyer to responsibility if, within the established time limits (10 days), he ignores the registration actions necessary in these cases. It is important to take into account that not only individuals, but also legal entities can be held liable. The amount of the fine for persons who, without removing and registering a car for themselves within the established time limits, committed an administrative offense, is provided for various:

• for citizens - 1.5 - 2 thousand rubles;
• for organizations - 5-10 thousand rubles;
• for officials - 2 - 3.5 thousand rubles.

As you can see, the fine for untimely removal and installation of the car is quite impressive, which is why we recommend that you take steps to register it in a timely manner.

Self-withdrawal by the buyer

As mentioned above, the buyer does not need to first deregister the car - this happens automatically when the traffic police registers it. In order for the car to be registered (and automatically removed from the seller), the new owner needs to contact the State Traffic Inspectorate, attaching the following documentation:

1. citizen's passport;
2. vehicle passport;
3. OSAGO policy (CASCO optional);
4. contract of sale.

When registering used vehicles and new ones, there are no big differences except for one - in the second case, transit numbers will be required. But the dealership that sells the car usually provides them.

Deregistration of a car is a process, although important, but not as time consuming as most other registration procedures. In the article you will learn how to deregister a car, how to do it without a car, whether it is possible to deregister a car in another region, how to write an application, where to go and other nuances of this procedure.

Deregistration of a car can be done for several reasons, although the most common of these is the sale of the car. Also, the car is deregistered for disposal, in case of loss, theft, and also in those rare cases when it is required to take the car abroad. This is done in order to stop receiving fines for the old owner (seller - in the event of a car sale), as well as accrue transport tax.

Please note that it has become even easier to deregister a vehicle from the traffic police database in 2020 - the fact is that the legislation, and specifically, the Rules for the re-registration of vehicles, was updated in 2017, therefore, even if you previously had experience of deregistration in State traffic inspectorates, now new - slightly modified rules have been introduced for this.

Where can I deregister a car

Any vehicle is deregistered in only one state institution - the registration department of the traffic police. You can find a list of registration offices in your region or city on the official website of the traffic police in the contacts section. Here are the registration offices in Moscow, St. Petersburg and in all large and small cities, as well as regions of our country.

Deregistration of a car upon sale

Many drivers think that when selling a car, it is not necessary to remove it from the registration. After all, the new owner registers it for himself, then the car is automatically deregistered in the traffic police and put on the new owner. But it's not. The main catch here is if the new owner does not register it. Then fines will come to you as a seller, and transport tax will also be charged. In addition, there is a risk of falling under the article of the Administrative Code for transferring control to a person in a state of intoxication if the buyer is caught in such a state, although this is rare and mainly in cases where you lose the contract of sale and cannot confirm the transfer of ownership.

You can remove the car from the register in 2020 on the 11th day after the sale specified in the contract, because the seller has 10 more days by law to register the car for himself.

To remove the car from the register, you will need to write an application, pay a state duty and take two documents with you. Although, in the traffic police you will have to appear with 3 documents as a result:

• completed application for deregistration of the car,
• passport,
• purchase and sale agreement.

If you decide to contact the State Traffic Inspectorate not through the State Services, but directly, then you can fill out an application directly at the traffic police department, there is also a sample to fill out. If you decide to fill it out right away at home, so as not to waste time in the traffic police, then do not worry, the application form is not of the established form and is filled out in a free form. All you need to do is provide all the necessary information about the car and yours. Such data can be viewed in a special form of the regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the provision of vehicle registration, in its appendix No. 1.

How to deregister a car through the State Services

And here there are two ways to remove the car from the register: by contacting the registration department of the traffic police directly or through the website of the State Service. In the first case, instructions are not required, in the second it is also simple:

1. You go to the website of the State Services and log in,
2. Fill out the application online by entering the details of your passport, vehicle passport, registration certificate, as well as the sale and purchase agreement, submit an application,
3. Make an appointment with the traffic police at the selected time,
4. At the selected time, you arrive at the traffic police with the documents listed in the previous list.

How to remove the car from the register if you have lost the contract of sale

If you have managed to lose the DKP, then you should not despair - you can still apply for deregistration of the car in the traffic police, although this will have to be done for other reasons. Therefore, if you parted with a new buyer on good terms, then the easiest way is to fill out a new copy of the sales contract with his signature (and, most importantly, the previous date of sale). And already with this agreement, contact the traffic police department, having learned the lesson not to lose important documents.

If, for one reason or another, you are unable to make a new copy of the lost DCT - for example, the new owner of the car does not get in touch, has claims against you regarding the purchased car and, thus, does not meet halfway in this matter, then you will have to remove the car on the basis lose her. In this case, you will not need a sales contract. You just have to point out that the TCP, which is required to terminate registration on this basis, is also lost (for example, it was in the glove compartment of a car). But it is worth warning the new owner of the car that he may have problems, since at the same time a note is made in the database of the traffic police vehicle that the car is lost, and problems may await the new owner if the traffic police officers stop him on the road. So registration by the new owner and / or facilitating deregistration by the seller in the interests of the new owner of the car.

What to do with fines that came before deregistration of a car

The fines that the new owner of the car caught before you registered and deregistered the car by you must be appealed. It is quite simple to do this: you need to send a complaint about fines, attaching a copy of the sales contract to the letter. Thus, the State traffic inspectorate will see confirmation that the car left your property on a certain date, and fines were caught after this date. Thus, this is irrefutable proof that these fines are not yours, and they will be canceled and transferred to the new owner of the car.

How to deregister a car without a car

If you want to remove the car from the registration without the vehicle itself for one reason or another - for example, if the car is not running, then you can do this for all reasons except one - taking the car abroad (clause of the Administrative Regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the provision of registration vehicles).

In this only case, you will have to bring the car for a mandatory inspection at the site of the traffic police. Even if the car is not running, then in order to deregister it for subsequent sale abroad, you will need to pay for a tow truck to bring it for inspection.

Removing a car from the register for recycling

The process of removing the vehicle from the register in order to dispose of it is also simple. And this can also be done on the State Services website by selecting the appropriate service. Unlike a simple deregistration due to disposal of a car, 3 more additional documents will be required for disposal:

• registration certificate (technical passport),
• certificate of disposal (according to the amended rules for deregistration of 2020).

Separately, it is worth noting the document on recycling. Prior to the changed accounting rules in 2017, this was not required. Now it is necessary to officially confirm the very fact of disposal. Innovations were made due to attempts to deregister cars when selling and losing a sales contract.

That is, now to remove the car from the register in connection with the scrap, the very fact of the scrap will be required. You can purchase such a document at the place of disposal - in other words, in the iron receiving department, which has a license to issue certificates.

How much does it cost to deregister a car and is there a state duty for it

Deregistration of a car using one of the above grounds is not subject to state duty and is absolutely free. All your expenses will be minimal at the same time: the cost of an Internet connection when submitting an application through the State Services, as well as transportation costs and payment for a tow truck, if you remove the vehicle from the register in connection with sending it abroad, and your car is not running, because as, as we mentioned above, for this you will need to bring the car for inspection to the traffic police.

Is it possible to deregister a car in another region?

The legislation of 2020 does not provide for any restrictions on the suspension of registration of a car at the place of registration of the owner (former owner when you sell the car). This means that you can terminate the registration of a vehicle at any traffic police department throughout Russia.

If the inspector in the window of the registration department says otherwise, then he should remember that he is the executive part of the law, and demand to refer to the regulatory legal act that prohibits deregistration of a car at the place of residence and obliges to do this at the place of registration (registration) of the applicant. The traffic police officer will not find such grounds, because they are not in any Russian law.

How to check if a car is deregistered

Checking the registration history of the vehicle is also carried out on the official website of the traffic police by the VIN code of the car, its body or chassis number.

Go to the vehicle check page on the traffic police website and enter one of the listed numbers. Next, go through protection from robots and click "request verification". As a result, the site will show you the entire registration history of your car, including the current state of its registration.

Just remember that the traffic police database on the site is somewhat late with updates - in our experience, by several days, so please be a little patient.

Reading time: 10 minutes

From time to time, changes occur in transport legislation, and car owners do not always have time to track them. For example, not everyone knows that deregistration of a car has now become much easier. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the new rules in order not to take unnecessary actions and not to draw up unnecessary documents for re-registering a car.

When to deregister a car

In all subjects Russian Federation there is a single administrative regulation on the setting and removal from registration records vehicle in the traffic police. This document, adopted in 2013 on the basis of the order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia No. 605 of 08/07/2013, greatly simplified the procedure for re-registering cars.

It should be noted that the term deregistration is somewhat outdated. In the new edition of September 6, 2017, the above-mentioned Order No. 605 does not have it, and the term termination of registration is used instead. But, in fact, it is still used today. And, most often, it is used when they mean the complete termination of registration without the possibility of its renewal:

• when disposing of the vehicle;
• export outside the Russian Federation.

Although in cases of termination of registration with the possibility of its restoration, this term is also often used, for example:

• when the car is stolen;
• in the event of the death of the owner;
• in case of serious damage as a result of an accident;
• in case of non-compliance with the established by the new owner.

Regarding the last point, in case of non-compliance, fines in the amount of 1,500–2,000 rubles are provided. in accordance with Article 19.22 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation.

How does this happen

The general procedure for deregistration of a car in 2020 includes the following steps:

1. The owner of the car draws up a statement in which he indicates the reason for the termination of registration.
2. Application and package required documents are transferred to the MREO officer for verification on the basis of the traffic police and other encumbrances. The documents are accompanied by receipts of payment of the state duty for making changes to the TCP or transit numbers.
3. In the presence of the owner, the expert conducts and draws up an act.
4. The act with the results of the inspection is transferred to the owner of the car along with a package of documents, which includes:
   • registration card;
   • vehicle registration certificate;
   • transit numbers of the state sample - (when exported outside the Russian Federation).

Receipts for payment of state duties (if any) are also returned to the owner of the car.

Upon completion of the procedure, the car owner must be issued a certificate of deregistration of the car in the traffic police.

What you need to deregister with the traffic police

Although de-registration of all vehicles follows a general pattern, additional procedures may apply depending on the reason for de-registration.

Therefore, car owners are interested in the question of whether a car is needed when deregistering.

On this occasion, we can say the following: the law allows the procedure for terminating the registration of a car without its actual presence in all cases except two:

• car export abroad;
• partial recycling. In this case, it is necessary to present for inspection the entire car or its individual parts (assemblies), which the car owner does not intend to dispose of and therefore retains for further use.

All procedures related to re-registration in the absence of a car are described in the article "".

Documentation

The first step towards deregistration of a car is to submit an application of the established form. Simultaneously with the application, the necessary documents are submitted to the MREO. In accordance with clause 40 of the Vehicle Registration Rules (Appendix No. 1 to Law No. 1001 of November 24, 2008), the complete basic package includes:

• statement;
• civil passport of the car owner;
• vehicle registration certificate (STS);
• technical passport of the vehicle (PTS);
• payment receipt.
• notarized, if deregistration is carried out not by the owner himself, but by his authorized representative.

However, before visiting the MREO, you should additionally find out exactly what documents you will need to deregister the car with the traffic police in 2018, and what you will have to pay the state duty for, since it is not provided for the deregistration procedure itself.

Additional clarifications are necessary, because in practice the procedure for terminating registration has its own characteristics in different cases, and in each individual situation either additional certificates or certificates are required, or some become optional.

Where to apply for deregistration

Thanks to changes in the legislation, car owners can independently choose where it is more convenient for them to register a car deregistration.

Today, you can re-register a car at any MREO, regardless of the place of residence of the owner and the place of the previous one.

Since most car owners are currently active Internet users, information on how to deregister a car online in 2020 is becoming especially popular.

It is quite simple to do this: just go to the gosuslugi.ru website. Here you will be offered different application forms, you just have to choose the right one and fill in the data correctly. Of course, this does not mean that the procedure ends here. On the site, you only leave a request, and then receive feedback about the place and time of the procedure. So visiting the MREO cannot be avoided, but time will certainly be saved.

On the site you can leave an application for various operations related to vehicles.

Removing a car from the register when selling

In the old days, in order to sell a car, the owner had to first deregister it.

Now the procedure for deregistration of a vehicle when selling a car has changed. The seller and the buyer conclude, after which the new owner is obliged to re-register the car with the traffic police in his name within 10 days. In this case, the data on the previous registration automatically becomes invalid.

Accordingly, in order for the deregistration of the car during the sale to go without problems, the seller is recommended to make copies of all documents confirming the fact of sale immediately at the time of the transaction.

How to deregister a car after sale

The car seller has the right to monitor compliance with the terms of re-registration. To do this, you should contact the traffic police with a request for registration for a new owner. If it is absent within 10 days from the date of execution of the sales contract, you can demand that the car be deregistered forcibly on the basis of a written application to the State Traffic Inspectorate.

If re-registration was not carried out, former owner You need to go through the process of deregistration yourself. It is carried out in the prescribed manner, but an additional procedure is assigned: checking the vehicle for encumbrances in the form of location.

If there is an encumbrance, the car cannot be removed from registration. So, if the car is purchased on credit, the entire amount must be fully repaid by the previous owner.

Re-registration of the car after the sale should be carried out without fail, otherwise the previous owner will be liable for violations of the Rules traffic that the buyer has committed, and pay other people's fines.

Deregistration: with or without numbers

Modern legislation provides the car owner with greater freedom of action. Now, when purchasing a used car, he can choose whether to keep the old numbers or change them to new ones.

This situation became possible due to the abolition of the mandatory procedure for deregistration of a car for its sale. In this case, the place of residence of the previous and new owners of the car does not matter. Since the registration of a vehicle, according to the law, is allowed in any region of the Russian Federation, regardless of the place of registration of the person to whom it is registered.

If the numbers do not change, when registering the car, they must be removed from the car and presented to the traffic police inspector for verification. At the same time, the inspector has the right to refuse registration if the numbers are in an inappropriate condition: for example, they are deformed or scratched. Then the car owner will have to order the production of new numbers in one of the specialized commercial organizations.

If the new owner wants to get new license plates, he will have to pay a state duty of 2,000 rubles for them.

Termination of registration in case of vehicle theft

A driver who has lost a car as a result of theft must deregister it as soon as possible. There are several reasons for this:

• First, the responsibility for the car remains with the owner. Accordingly, all illegal actions that abductors can commit with the participation of this car, whether it be a road accident or a criminal offense, automatically transfer the owner of the car to the category of suspects of complicity, and it is not a fact that they will be able to prove their innocence.
• Secondly, the physical absence of a car does not exempt its owner from. Is it worth it to pay for a car that you no longer have?
• Thirdly, no one can legally sell an unregistered vehicle, or register it in his own name.

How to deregister a stolen car in 2020? First of all, contact the police and get an extract on the initiation of a criminal case on the theft. Then, with this document, you should go to the traffic police department, and write another application there - to deregister the car, as well as present your passport and documents for the car. No additional action is required.

If the car is found, it can be registered again.

The absence of a car can be associated not only with theft, but also with loss. What does it mean? A car has a specific life cycle. It ages, wears out and eventually becomes unusable due to physical destruction. At the same time, it continues to be listed as valid, since it has not been deregistered. In this case, it is necessary to deregister the vehicle due to loss.

Steps to deregister a car under arrest

The law on the abolition of the deregistration of the car greatly simplifies its sale. But at the same time, sometimes the buyer has difficulties. When trying to register a car, the new owner may encounter an unexpected obstacle in the form of. This situation is possible, in particular, when buying a used vehicle that is under arrest imposed by bailiffs. The reason for the arrest is the debts of the former owner for taxes or alimony, as well as unpaid traffic police fines.

How to deregister a car arrested by bailiffs? First of all, try to cancel the ban on registration. In accordance with paragraph 45 of the "Rules for the registration of motor vehicles and trailers for them", the ban can be canceled in the following cases:

• if it is imposed illegally,
• paying off debts.

Of course, it is better to start by checking the lawfulness of the arrest, but this will take a lot of time, and the arrest can be quite legal.

Paying debts is the fastest and most reliable way to get a car out of arrest. After the payment information appears in the database of the Bailiff Service, you need to take from them a decision to lift the ban on registration actions and transfer it to the traffic police. Now the car can be deregistered.

There is another type of termination of registration associated with court proceedings: forced deregistration of a car. Such a measure is applied if there is a court decision to return or transfer the vehicle to another person.

Suspension of registration

There is a new concept in the current vehicle registration rules - the temporary suspension of the registration of a car, or, as it is also called, the suspension of registration. This means that it, if desired, can be restored. At the same time, the PTS is not disposed of, and only a note is made in it about the termination of registration.

Temporary deregistration of a vehicle is applied to cars that have been seriously damaged in an accident or in other situations: in case of theft, death of the owner or untimely re-registration by the buyer. Such a measure is necessary so that its owner is not charged a transport tax.

Full information on the temporary termination of registration is in the article "".

Removing a car from the register for recycling

Any car eventually becomes unusable - due to age-related changes or as a result of an accident. In such cases, it must be disposed of. Previously, it had to be deregistered first.

But from 10.07. 2020, the procedure for deregistration of vehicles due to disposal has changed. Now for this you need to provide a document on its actual disposal. So first you need to hand over the car to a recycling center, get a recycling certificate, and only then you can remove it from the register with the traffic police.

By the way, it is not necessary to write off the entire car. It is possible that some of its parts are well preserved and suitable for further use. Depending on the degree of safety of the car, deregistration is carried out in connection with partial or complete disposal.

The procedure for deregistration of old and damaged cars is described in the article "".

How to deregister a car when traveling abroad

In accordance with the rules for registering vehicles (Article 14 of the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1001), in the event of a change in the place of residence of the owner of the car, the deregistration procedure is not mandatory. Nevertheless, when traveling abroad, it is recommended to carry it out.

How to remove a car from the registration in the traffic police when traveling abroad? To do this, it is enough to submit an application to the traffic police department indicating the reason for deregistration, present the passport of the owner of the car, PTS machines and receipts for payment of the state duty, and then go through an inspection of the car here to verify serial numbers.

On this, the procedure for removing a car when traveling abroad is considered completed. It will take no more than an hour.

The registration card, which is issued to the owner of the car after the car is deregistered, must contain a mark on the export of this vehicle outside the Russian Federation.

As for the size of the state duty, it ranges from 900 to 2,300 rubles, depending on the type transit numbers(200 rubles for paper, 1,600 for metal).

remember, that individuals you should not insist on issuing transit numbers. According to the new rules, they are necessary only for legal entities and individual entrepreneurs.

The procedure for deregistration of a car for legal entities

The owner of the car can be not only an individual, but also a legal entity. At the same time, the procedure for carrying out the procedure is almost the same, and complies with the rules prescribed in the regulations on the procedure for registering vehicles. The difference is only in the number of documents: a legal entity will need much more of them.

Let us consider in more detail how the car is deregistered in 2018 when selling legal entity.

First of all, an application should be submitted to the traffic police, in which data on the reconciliation of unit numbers are indicated. The application must be certified at the military registration and enlistment office at the place of registration of the vehicle. The following documents are attached to the application:

• vehicle passport (PTS) - original and copy;
• an order to remove a car from the balance of the organization;
• vehicle registration certificate;
• power of attorney for an employee representing the interests of the organization. It is issued on a letterhead with a seal and signatures of the chief accountant and the head of the organization. Certified by a notary;
• payment documents for the payment of state duties (receipts for legal entities are prohibited);
• charter of the organization with a seal;
• documents confirming the right to sell a car (minutes of meetings);
• personal documents of the authorized person (passport, TIN).

After studying the documents and checking the car on the basis of the presence of unpaid taxes, fines and other encumbrances, the traffic police inspector sends a representative of the legal entity to the observation deck. Here a general inspection of the car and reconciliation of serial numbers is carried out. Based on the results, an act is drawn up.

Upon completion of all the above actions, the trustee of the organization is issued an act of inspection of the car and documents on the payment of state duties. The procedure for deregistration of a car by a legal entity does not end there.

The next step is to replace the permanent car numbers with transit ones, which will be valid for two months.

Finally, the last thing that a trusted person needs to do is to get a vehicle registration certificate with a deregistration mark and a registration card (if there is a new registration certificate).

How much does the procedure cost

State duty for deregistration (termination of registration) of the vehicle is not charged. But there may be other costs. The amounts that will have to be paid for deregistration of the car with the traffic police depend on the type and number of services provided and the documents executed.

For example, the state duty for documents when re-registering a car when buying it includes:

• 350 rubles - for making changes to the TCP;
• 500 rubles - for issuing a COP for a new owner (for a plastic new sample - 1,500 rubles).

But these are expenses, rather for registration, and not for withdrawal.

All additional services that may be needed are an assessment by forensic experts, registration of transit numbers, and so on.

How to remove a car from the traffic police: Video

Deregistration of a car upon sale is an optional procedure. When the new owner performs registration actions in the traffic police, the transport is removed from the registration automatically. If the buyer is in no hurry to contact the traffic police, this will have to be done by the former owner. In this article, we will analyze how to deregister a sold car.

When should you deregister your car?

We list the cases in which it is necessary to deregister a car:

• car recycling under the state program - full or partial;
• car theft;
• export of the vehicle outside the Russian Federation;
• non-fulfillment by the new owner of the obligation to register the car for himself within 10 days after the sale.

Why do it

If the new owner of the car did not register the car for himself, fines will be sent to the name of the previous owner, he will have to pay transport tax, and if the car gets into an accident, the police will come to him. Often, the previous owner only finds out about the lack of registration for the buyer when he receives a notice of offenses on the road. Why the buyer may not re-register the vehicle for himself:

• disease;
• forced absence (for example, a business trip);
• unwillingness to pay fines;
• simple irresponsibility;

Procedure

Consider how to deregister a car when selling. To begin with, we note that you no longer need to apply strictly to the department where the vehicle was registered. Thanks to the creation of electronic databases, you can go to any Interdistrict Registration and Examination Department of the State Road Safety Inspectorate with a package of documents and an application.

Before applying for deregistration, we recommend that you negotiate with the buyer. Contact him using the contacts specified in the contract and specify the reasons why he has not yet re-registered the car for himself. Perhaps the new owner has good reasons, and he has already made an appointment with the traffic police to go through the registration procedure. In this case, deregistration of the car will greatly complicate the process of its registration for a new owner.

If the buyer does not respond or refuses to register the vehicle, contact the traffic police department yourself. Appointments can be made through the public services website. This will save the driver a lot of time. Log in to your account and select the "Registration of motor vehicles and trailers for them" section. Next, go to the tab "Re-registration of the vehicle when changing the owner's data (purchase on secondary market, donation or change of owner data)”. Specify the purpose of the visit, a convenient date and time. If all fields are filled in correctly, the system will give a positive answer. At the appointed time, report to the Interdistrict Registration and Examination Department.

Note! Deregistration will be refused if the car is encumbered or arrested, there are debts for fines or taxes. All debts will have to be paid off.

After checking the documents, the traffic police officer will enter the information into the database, after which the car will be considered removed from the registration.

If the buyer has already registered the car, there is no point in contacting the traffic police for the former owner, the procedure will go through automatically. To be safe, check the data using the traffic police online service.

What documents are needed to deregister a car

You will need the following papers:

• a contract for the sale of a vehicle;
• statement;
• applicant's passport;
• copies of documents for the vehicle;
• receipt for payment of state duty.

How much does the procedure cost? For the seller, the service is free. The buyer will have to pay 350 rubles. for entering information into the TCP, 850 rubles. will be a state fee. If new numbers are needed, the owner pays another 2,000 rubles. Deregistration period - 1 hour.

What does an application for deregistration of a car look like:

• name of the department;
• information about the owner;
• reasons for deregistration;
• passport data;
• registration address, phone number;
• information about the car (make, model, year of manufacture, vehicle type/category, color, registration plate, VIN, body number (cabin, trailer), engine power hp/kW, environmental class, permitted maximum weight);
• a list of changes that have been made to the design of the car;
• list of documents.

How to remove a car from the traffic police without a car and documents

According to auto experts, it is possible to go through the deregistration procedure without a car. It is enough to apply with an application and documents to the traffic police. Papers do not need to be provided only if they were stolen along with the car.

Note! In the event of a sale, the seller who contacts the traffic police is obliged to transfer the documents on the conclusion of the transaction, that is, the contract with the buyer.

Can I sell a deregistered car?

If the car was deregistered before the sale, the future owner must be sure that he will be able to restore the registration. Therefore, the buyer may have concerns about the legal purity of the transaction. Therefore, it is more difficult to sell a deregistered vehicle.

If the only reason for deregistration is a subsequent sale, then the seller will not be able to do this before the transfer to the new owner. Former owner can remove the car from registration only 10 days after the conclusion of the contract of sale, if the new owner has not re-registered the car within this period for himself.

Starting from the autumn of 2013, the procedure for mandatory deregistration of a car, as well as its re-registration, was significantly simplified for motorists. Unlike the previous rules, according to the new standards, there is no mandatory need to deregister before selling, and then register it with a new owner.

At the same time, various issues related to .

One of them is situations when you need to rent a car, but there is no opportunity or desire to demonstrate the vehicle itself. There are also cases when some of the main documents are missing for one reason or another. How to act in such situations, how legal the grounds for withdrawal will be, and what else you should know about, many car owners are interested.

Therefore, it is necessary to consider in more detail the questions of how to remove a car from the state register, but without a car or without documents. This is indeed possible, but you need to know all the subtleties of the procedure and the reasons for their implementation without such important components.

When should a car be deregistered?

Let's start with situations where the legislation and current rules provide for the mandatory removal of a car from registration.

In fact, there are only 4 reasons why you will have to remove a vehicle from mandatory state registration.

1. Disposal takes place in accordance with the current state social program. The disposal itself is divided into full and partial. In the first case, recycling is carried out if the vehicle is not suitable for further operation. All parts and components with numbers are transferred for destruction and processing. In the case of partial processing, only some elements that have their own aggregate numbers are written off. But you can not present the car only upon the fact of complete processing (utilization). This does not apply to the partial destruction of aggregates. By following this procedure, the previous owner is released from the obligation to pay the corresponding mandatory tax on the car.
2. The car was reported to have been stolen. If the car was stolen or other unlawful acts were committed against it, having illegally seized the vehicle, you must immediately contact the traffic police and write a statement there indicating the need to remove your a car from accounting. If the car is found, then the car is re-registered.
3. carried out in another state. If a motorist leaves the country for a long time by car or with a car, he must be removed from registration and registered at a new place. You should only count on obtaining transit numbers if you are an individual entrepreneur or a legal entity.
4. The car was not re-registered by the new owner in a timely manner after the sale. 10 days are given for re-registration from the date of sale of the vehicle. If its new owner has not re-registered the vehicle for himself, the previous owner has the authority to request that the car be removed from the current registration. Otherwise, which is extremely important to understand, all fixed fines and state taxes will go to the account of the old owner.

As you can see, there are not so many reasons to remove a vehicle from state registration. But they are.

And not in all of the situations described, you can count on the withdrawal without some documents and without presenting for inspection and reconciliation of the numbered units of the vehicle itself.

Deregistration without the car itself

A little more difficult is the question of how you can deregister a car, but without a car. It sounds a little strange and it may seem that it is impossible to do this. But the current Russian legislation proves otherwise.

In practice, the removal of a vehicle from state registration without the mandatory presentation of the vehicle itself is quite possible. But only in certain situations.

There are several situations when it is not necessary to show the car when performing certain registration actions:

• in case of obtaining registration marks;
• when issuing registration documents;
• upon receipt of a duplicate of the TCP;
• when making changes to the credentials, in which the registration data of the machine itself does not change;
• in case of termination of the temporary registration;
• upon deregistration due to the disposal of the vehicle;
• in case of loss of the vehicle;
• if the car was exported outside the Russian Federation.

As you understand, it is the last 3 points that are fundamental here, since they relate specifically to the issue of deregistration.

When it comes to a car exported to another country, a corresponding mark should be in the registration documents presented. Then no one in the local traffic police will demand to present the car for inspection.

In the event of theft, which is quite natural and obvious, the owner cannot present the car in any way, since its location remains unknown.

More controversial was the issue of disposal. After all, supposedly if the car is going to be disposed of, it should first be shown. No. Here the system works differently. According to the rules and the current new procedure, the vehicle is first handed over to a recycling point, where a corresponding certificate is issued. Already with him, the owner comes to the traffic police and, according to this document, removes the car from the register. He will no longer be able to show it, since the vehicle was simply destroyed and reworked.

Application preparation

The application is included in the package of mandatory documents that are presented upon removal from the state registration of a vehicle.

In addition to the application itself, you should collect:

• car owner's passport;
• certificate of the vehicle on its registration;
• receipts confirming the fact of payment of the state mandatory duty;
• PrEP, if the car is removed due to the sale;
• certificate of auto-disposal, if necessary;
• a notarized power of attorney, if the procedure is carried out by a representative of the owner of the vehicle.

When writing such a statement, one should clearly understand and take into account exactly what reason for taking such actions.

The application is filled in according to the established pattern. It can be found at the information stand directly at the traffic police department (MREO), or on the official website of the traffic police.

When preparing a document, focus on the reason:

• If the car was previously exported outside the country, then it should be indicated that the actions taken are carried out due to or in connection with the export of the vehicle outside the state.
• When it comes to the complete disposal of the car, then it is necessary to make a note that certificates are not needed for the units released due to processing (utilization), and license plates and available documents for the car are attached to the application.
• Partial recycling is also possible. Here the application is written with an emphasis on the fact that it is required to obtain certificates for necessary elements. Usually this is a body, chassis or power unit.
• After the sale, a car sold on the secondary market may not be registered by new owners within the allotted 10 days. If the previous owner doubts the transparency of the further history of the car, he has the right to submit a recycling application, indicating separately the fact of the loss of license plates and documentation.

Otherwise, the application is filled out according to the standard, the necessary data is entered, the date, signature, etc. are put.

Features of removal due to theft

Before going to the traffic police, it is imperative to file a complaint with the police and make sure that the case has been opened and criminal proceedings have begun.

With such a statement from the police department, which indicates the fact of the theft of a vehicle, the owner of the car applies to the nearest traffic police department convenient to him, and writes a statement with a request to remove his car from the current state registration for the corresponding reason for initiating criminal proceedings on the fact of car theft.

This is done for several reasons:

• motorist;
• to receive compensation from the insurance company;
• to avoid proceedings if the car is involved in crimes and other unlawful acts.

The presence of documents confirming the fact that the car was stolen and the owner removed it from registration allows you to avoid additional financial expenses and proceedings with law enforcement agencies.

Since the machine itself is the owner for carrying out registration actions can not present, you will need to collect the appropriate package of documents. It consists of:

• statements with a demand or request to remove the car from the register;
• identity cards;
• technical passport;
• documents from the police about the opening of criminal proceedings.

If the passport of the vehicle at the time of the theft or theft was in the car at the time of theft, this fact must be indicated in the application to the police, as well as in the corresponding application submitted at the nearest or convenient traffic police department.

Cancellation from auto-registration due to disposal

If the vehicle is scrapped, it is important to focus on what kind of recycling is in question. It can be complete or partial.

In both cases, the set of required documents will be the same. It consists of:

• passport or other identification of the owner of the car;
• vehicle passports;
• registration certificates;
• statements;
• a receipt confirming the fact of payment of the state duty for license plates.

Having collected all the necessary documents listed, the car owner applies to the nearest or convenient traffic police department. It is not at all necessary to go to the branch at the place of your residence or registration. In this regard, the procedure under the new rules has been significantly simplified. Only if we are talking about the complete processing of the car, it will be removed from the register without first presenting the vehicle itself.

In situations where part of the units with numbers will not be disposed of, the inspector must first carry out the procedure for inspecting and verifying the numbers. If the car is in a state unsuitable for independent movement, an expert is called to the parking lot. He conducts an inspection there and makes a conclusion in writing. Having the relevant document in hand, the owner of the car attaches it to the rest of the package and on their basis an extract from the register is issued.

The situation considered allows us to answer the urgent question of whether it is possible to deregister your car without the car itself, and under what circumstances this is allowed.

Withdrawal upon sale

As noted earlier, according to the new current rules the new owner undertakes to remove the car from the register after its sale. Already canceled the old rule, according to which the previous owner had to first remove the vehicle from the state compulsory registration, sell it, and only then register it for a new owner.

Now there is such an opportunity as direct re-registration.

But it happens that a motorist sold his car, but for some reason the new owner does not register it for himself. Here a logical question arises as to how to act and whether it is possible to deregister to the previous owner. Yes, it can be done.

According to the current legislation and the rules prescribed by the traffic police, in the event of the sale of a used car, remove it from registration and re-register it, but to a new person, the buyer undertakes. But since he may not do this for one reason or another, the corresponding obligations are shifted to the one who acted as the seller's side in the transaction.

Now more about how to remove an already sold car from the state register in the current situation. The main problem that may affect some motorists is the need to contact the traffic police department (MREO) where the car was previously registered. You will also need to prepare a package of documents.

It consists of:

• declarations of intent to deregister the vehicle;
• passport or other identity card;
• the original of the contract of sale, which was left with the seller at the conclusion of the transaction;
• a receipt confirming that the statutory fee for this procedure has been paid.

As you can see, there is no urgent need to remove cars from the traffic police register now. There are only a few situations where this can or should be done. The new rules have really simplified the life of motorists, and also significantly saved their time.

As for deregistration without presenting the car itself, this is possible in the situations discussed above. The only exceptions are cases when the vehicle is exported to another country, or sent.

If we are talking about partial disposal, then it will be necessary to present the entire car for inspection, or individual units or elements that are not subject to the write-off procedure, and will continue to be used by the car owner.
