On August 21, 2019, a round table was held and was attended by:
— new head customs Maxim Nefedov FB link
- newly elected people's deputy Vladislav Krykliy
— Public organizations EURO AUTO POWER, etc.
- Representative of the President's Office (Ruslan Ryaboshapka),
- representatives of the Ministry of Economy
- A group of people's deputies who will represent committees for the development and implementation of new rules, for customs clearance.

How did the round table end?

The round table on customs clearance of Europlates ended, it can be said, not very effectively, namely:

• customs can fine you in theory, but technically not yet
• the police will be able to stop you only for a specific reason, but they will not be able to check the timing or legality of the arrival of a car on a foreign registration or fine
• the authorities promised when the new Verkhovna Rada will come out and as soon as urgent laws will be adopted on the deferment of fines for Euroblades
• during this transitional period will be developed new law or modified 8487

What will be the new law on customs clearance

After the round table, new rhetoric came from the new government:

• in theory, they will be able to possibly adopt a new law where there will be a fixed rate of taxes depending on the year or car and the rate can start from 500 euros, but this option is unlikely
• the second option is more realistic according to the authorities, they can reduce taxes and most likely they want to amend law 8487 and it is there that you can remove either the excise tax itself or the age coefficient and then taxes will be from 33% percent to 35%

While we live according to the old law, and who has europlates since August 22, it is better to leave a car in the garage and wait for the extension of the law.

What is the reaction of the authorities to EUROBLAHI

1. BORDER SERVICE
They operate in the regular mode, without any changes in the passage of EURO NUMBERS.
2. CUSTOMS OFFICERS
Apply penalties, which are prescribed in law 8488 from UAH 8,500 to 170,000, but only to those who cross the border, and it doesn’t matter if the car is expired or not.
Letters of happiness to those who have EUROBLACH, but do not travel, will not be sent.
Those who have such a car burned down, stolen or cannot be restored after an accident, it is better to arm themselves with a serious package of documents so that the customs office has the opportunity to confirm force majeure circumstances and not impose sanctions on the owner of the Europlate.
3. Police
According to the additions to Art. 35 of the Law "On Police", the police received a reason to stop EUROBLYAH in order to check the legality of his stay.
If it is found that the car is expired or a person is driving it, it was imported - a fine of 8500 UAH is provided. If caught again -17,000 UAH and confiscation of the car, plus deprivation of rights for a year.
However, due to the fact that until the customs and police bases are unified, such fines will not be imposed. The maximum is a stop, warnings, explanations and wishes of a happy journey.
If the car is cleared by customs, but not yet registered (on transit numbers) - fined 170 hryvnia. Everything else is speculation or illegal actions.
4. POSITION OF POWER
The President introduced urgent bill 10462 to postpone the said sanctions until November 22.
During this time, the Office of the President, together with the working group, should develop a law on customs clearance.

Customs clearance of a car euro 4, euro 3 and below.

In the Rada on November 8, 2018, they voted for the law on customs clearance of Europlates, 250 deputies said yes to the new, but rather controversial customs clearance of cars with foreign registration. And as the months have shown new customs clearance this law did not solve the problem of customs clearance of Europlates, since after the end of the grace period in customs clearance of Europlates, it hung on a long pause, except for 10 volunteers per month, who, in desperation, clear their Europlates at cosmic rates.
It cannot be said that taxes on europlates are adequate, because for a car costing 1000 euros in taxes, even during the transition period (90 days), you had to pay at least 1500 euros, and if you have a large engine capacity (from 3.5 diesel and from 3 liters gasoline), then the taxes will definitely be unbearable.

The excise tax on Europlates is calculated according to the coefficients.

According to bill 8487, there are several basic coefficients.
In the first 90 days, the so-called transitional period, there was a 50% discount only on excise duty on one of the three taxes, the next 90 days there will be no discount.
We also have coefficients:

• excise price coefficient for diesel 75 euros for engines up to 3500 cu. cm and more, which is 150 euros, and for gasoline up to 3000 cc. - 50 euros, more than 3000 cc. - 100 euro,
• car age coefficient (measured in years),
• engine size (measured in liters),
• there will also be a special coefficient for cars older than 15 years in the amount of the base rate of 15.

An example of calculating only excise duty.
Petrol:
We multiply 50 euros by the age of the car 10 years and by the volume 1.6 = 800 euros of excise duty.
Diesel:
We multiply 75 euros by the age of the car 10 years and by the volume 1.6 = 1200 euros of excise duty.
As we wrote, in addition to the excise tax, there is also a duty and VAT, and now let's calculate the total amount of taxes on a car.
For example, a car with a volume of 1.6 diesel engine, whose age is 10 years and cost 3000 euros, will be calculated according to the following formula:
➡ 10% duty - from 3000 euros = 300 euros
➡ excise 75 times 10 years and times 1, 6 = 1200 (50% discount - 600 euros in the first 90 days)
➡ VAT (3000 + 300 +1200) %20 = 900 EUR
Total taxes - 2400 euros.
If we apply a 50% discount on excise, then taxes will be 1680 EURO.
If you need to calculate the amount of taxes for customs clearance of a car according to the Euroblank law, then we have made a new one for you
According to the new formula for cars older than 15 years, we will get not very interesting numbers, since the coefficients were left at the same level and only if the car is older than 15 the coefficient remains the same, still 15. For example, let's calculate a car with the following parameters: 2000 with a volume 2.0 diesel and cost 1000 euros.
➡ duty 10% - from 1000 euros = 100 euros
➡ base rate excise 75 times 2 and the base rate for age 15 = 2250 euros (50% discount - 1125 euros in the first 90 days)
➡ VAT (1000 + 100 +2250) %20 = 670 EUR
Total taxes - 3188 euros.
If we apply a 50% discount on excise, then taxes will be 1670 EURO.
And this is the foundation for the base rates (50, 75 euros) of excise duty under the Euroblank law. This is just a mockery of common sense, the longer the problem with europlates is not solved, the more difficult it will be for our ecology. Here is a small digression on ecology in Ukraine: everything is very normal with ecology, how did you all see the new priuses on our cops and how do you think we got them? We received these environmentally friendly cars thanks to Japan, which bought part of the harmful emissions into the atmosphere from Ukraine through barter, thanks to which we received this “environmental miracle”.
Edits that were rejected at the vote in the Verkhovna Rada on 08.11.18

• distribution of the proposed new excise tax model to all vehicles;
• narrowing the VAT tax base for goods that are introduced by excluding duties and excise from the price of goods (important: excise and duty will not be removed as a tax, they will simply be removed from the VAT deduction base, which will not greatly reduce the cosmic tax rates);
• exemption from VAT for imported new and used vehicles up to 2019 (inclusive), except for vehicles originating from a country recognized by the occupying state, as well as those manufactured for more than 10 years at the time of import;
• cancellation of excise tax for trucks, bodies and motorcycles;
• applying a discount of 50% excise tax for combatants (YUZHANINA ARGUMENTED THIS BY THAT THERE IS A POWER OF ATTORNEY IN UKRAINE AND THEREFORE, IT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL WHO THE REAL OWNER OF THESE CARS);
• replacement of the age coefficient by the ECO coefficient, i.e. the vehicle’s compliance with the European environmental standard and its establishment in absolute values;
• applying to the age coefficient when calculating the reduction factor of 0.7 or even excluding it from the formula;
• continuation until 2020 (inclusive) VAT exemption for vehicles equipped with electric motors;
• taxation of hybrid vehicles at the excise rate for electric vehicles.

Now we can move on from good news to bad news, namely to fines for delayed stay of a car on a foreign registration in Ukraine.

What will be the control and new penalties under the law on customs clearance of cars 8488?

Now a non-resident will be able to relatively freely import only one europlate, and the second only after paying a financial guarantee. The amount of the guarantee must be equal to the amount of customs payments for the car.
Also, a person who brought a car to Ukraine in the transit or temporary import mode cannot disassemble or give the car for commercial use. For example, if the police registers the use of an uncleared car in a taxi, then the violator will be fined UAH 8,500, and if the violation is repeated, the fine will be UAH 170,000. and deprivation of rights for a year, as well as confiscation of the car at the expense of the offender.


Also change the amount of fines for exceeding the period of stay in the customs territory of Ukraine in the transit mode and in the temporary import mode.

For those who nevertheless decided to clear a car in 2019, the question immediately arises - from which country is it better to clear a car from customs?

A car enthusiast, as a rule, has 2 choices: a car from the USA or a car from Europe. Let's take a quick look at these possibilities.
If your budget is up to $ 6,000, then this is definitely Europe, and if your budget is larger, then, naturally, it is better to bring a car from America, since car prices in America are an order of magnitude lower than in Europe. Mostly broken cars are sailing from the States, since the cost broken cars very attractive and the amount of taxes is also small.
If you are interested in a car from the USA, then read our buying instructions and. There you will find detailed instructions from choosing a car in America to registering it already in Ukraine.
We also did not bypass lovers of European cars and wrote a buying guide and. I am sure that in the entire Ukrainian Internet you will not find detailed articles on cars from Europe and cars from the USA for 9000 and 12000 characters without spaces.

So if you have been thinking about the issue of customs clearance of a car, then now is the time to realize your desires.

But there are a couple of things to consider. The car must meet the environmental standard of at least Euro 2.
Also, if you do not have time to choose a car or go to Europe to pick it up, we can help you not only clear the car, but also bring the car you like from Europe to order.

What changes in the law on customs clearance expect motorists in 2019?

A significant change in the legislation on customs clearance of electric vehicles in Ukraine, according to the new law on electric vehicles, you pay an excise tax of 1 euro per one KW / hour, and if you have incorrect documents and you cannot prove the country of origin, then you pay a fee.

Under the Ukraine-EU Association Agreement for used cars with confirmed origin from the EU, the import duty rate has been reduced to 6.4%!

Customs clearance of cars in Ukraine in 2020 is still of interest to many people. That is why we have created a special calculator that will calculate the cost of all customs payments, taking into account all the innovations, both for cars from Europe and for cars imported from other countries, such as Canada or the USA. It is worth noting that excise duty and VAT on the import of electric cars from abroad will not be charged until 2022. Those who intend to go abroad to buy a car should definitely read the memo how and how. In addition, you need to read the full text of the Law that reduces excises.

How to clear a car in Ukraine

Importing cars from abroad has become a particularly hot topic for Ukrainian consumers after the adoption of a number of laws that not only made customs payments at least somehow commensurate with the cost of imported cars, but also made it possible to purchase cars manufactured before 2010. According to the existing legislation, all vehicles (TC) imported into the territory of Ukraine must go through the procedure of customs clearance (customs clearance).

How much does customs clearance cost in 2020?

In order to clarify the situation for our users and take into account all the variables, we have created this customs clearance calculator for individuals who bought a car (new or used) abroad. It takes into account all changes in regulations that affect the customs clearance of cars in 2020.

Attention!
With the entry into force of new laws 2611-VIII and 2612-VIII, customs clearance of used passenger vehicles imported into Ukraine by a person for his own use in the amount of one a car, is carried out if they comply with environmental standards not lower than the level of "EURO-2", and new vehicles - "EURO-5".
For trucks and buses, both new and used, the EURO-5 environmental restrictions remain.

Mandatory payments for customs clearance of a car

• Import customs duty
  According to the Law "Customs Tariff of Ukraine", the import customs duty is 10% of the amount of the customs value of the vehicle. The exception is buses diesel engines engine capacity over 5 liters, serving to transport more than 10 people (20%) and electric vehicles (0%). Cars originating from EU countries since 2019, for the most part, have a rate of 6.4%, except for: new passenger cars with gasoline engines up to 1 l (5%) and more than 1.5 l (from 5 to 4.5%).
• excise duty
  For different types of vehicles, it is calculated in its own way and depends on the type of vehicle, engine size, its type (diesel or gasoline), and the age of the car. For electric vehicles, the excise duty is 0% until 2022.
• Customs clearance
• VAT
  It is 20% of the sum of the customs value of the car, excise duty and import duty. Electric vehicles are exempt from VAT until 2022 (VAT = 0%).

"On state registration of vehicles", which allows you to register new car without a visit. Now to the buyer new car everything can be arranged at the dealership.

After the law is approved and signed by the president, a number of documents will still have to be developed that will determine the procedure for the operation of the new rules.

Earlier, the First Deputy Chairman said that such a law is necessary and absolutely correct.

“My opinion about this initiative is positive, since this bill actually approves the norms that are established within the framework of the federal law. Plus, it simplifies the registration system, determines the specific reasons why registration of a vehicle may be denied, and it is the only one - broken numbers, ”said "b" Lysakov.

In his opinion, such a law will simplify the procedure for registering cars for car owners.

“It will be possible to register a car in any region, at least temporarily, at least permanently, regardless of where you live. Government number the dealer can now deliver if he has the appropriate conditions.

This service already exists in some companies, now it is legalized,” Lysakov added.

Also, innovations concern the signs themselves. Two new terms are introduced: state registration number(combination of letters and numbers) and state register sign(a metal plate on which symbols are applied).

The traffic police department will assign only a number, and the car owner will receive the signs independently - from the manufacturer. The latter will be subject to special requirements (including protection of special products and equipment). All these firms will be included in a separate register, and the FAS will also develop marginal tariffs for them.

The new law is intended to close a number of legislative gaps. Now, for example, some car owners register a car for a minor teenager, and it is impossible to bring him to administrative responsibility when recording violations by cameras, this is prohibited by the Code of Administrative Offenses. The bill says: "the owner of the vehicle" cannot be under 16 years of age.

The bill is likely to come into force as early as 2019: during this period, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will have to prepare a number of by-laws. It is already clear that the bill will affect millions of Russian citizens.

In turn, the leader of the Movement of Motorists of Russia, Viktor, in an interview with Gazeta.Ru, said that such a law is useful for motorists.

“It is fundamentally correct that motorists will have the opportunity to register a car directly with a dealer: now they do not have to go and mess with the traffic police, waste time. After all, many are willing to pay extra and do everything in one place. The growth of the range of services for motorists is definitely a good trend, such a project can be supported,” Pokhmelkin said.

Good afternoon, dear reader.

Almost every car owner eventually spends some kind of refinement and improvement of his "iron horse".

For some, the changes are very minor, for example, replacing nipple caps with colored ones. Other motorists approach improvements more thoroughly and make changes to the engine, suspension, car body. All of these changes relate to the tuning (finishing) of the vehicle.

This article will discuss what penalties await the owner of a car for illegal tuning.

Varieties of car tuning

First of all, we highlight the common types of tuning, which are widespread in Russia:

• or in headlights.

All these changes are massive, so each of them is considered in a separate article. Today we will not dwell on them in detail.

As for other types of tuning, they can be divided into the following groups:

• Improving the appearance of the car. This group includes, for example, the installation of non-standard bumpers and spoilers on cars.
• Improvement specifications cars. In this case, we are talking about making changes to the car engine, its suspension or other structural elements.
• Improvement of the car's patency. Preparing the machine for off-road driving includes the installation additional equipment, for example, a winch or a snorkel, as well as finalizing the design of the car itself.

In general, making changes to the design affects a fairly large group of car owners.

Fine for car tuning in 2020

Penalties for changing the design of the vehicle are provided for:

1. Control vehicle if there are malfunctions or conditions under which, in accordance with the Basic Provisions for the Admission of Vehicles for Operation and the obligations of officials to ensure road safety, the operation of the vehicle is prohibited, with the exception of malfunctions and conditions specified in parts 2 - 7 of this article, -

shall entail a warning or the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of five hundred rubles.

So the driver will be fined 500 rubles for most of the changes made to the design.

There are a few exceptions that carry more severe penalties:

• Installation of headlights with red lights on the front of the car - deprivation of rights from 4 to 6 months (part 3 of article 12.5);
• Installation of special light (flashing lights) or sound signals - deprivation of rights from 12 to 18 months (part 4 of article 12.5);
• Installation of the sign "Disabled" - a fine of 5,000 rubles (part 4 1 of article 12.5);
• Installation of color schemes for operational services - deprivation of rights from 12 to 18 months (part 6 of article 12.5);
• Installing a color scheme for a passenger taxi - a fine of 5,000 rubles.

All of the above design changes are illegal and this does not raise questions from drivers. We, within the framework of this article, are interested in those changes that do not fall into the specified list. It is required to understand in which case a fine of 500 rubles can be imposed, and in which it cannot.

And for this you need to figure out what types of tuning relate to design changes.

Note. If a change in the design of the vehicle is detected, the traffic police may cancel the registration of the car:

What about vehicle design changes?

Part 1 of Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses refers to. The full text of this document is not required, you just need to study its appendix:

In this document, the final paragraph 7.18 refers to tuning:

7.18. Changes have been made to the design of the vehicle without the permission of the State Inspectorate for Road Safety of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Russian Federation or other bodies determined by the Government of the Russian Federation.

After reading this paragraph, the question arises of what exactly refers to changes in the design of the vehicle, for which you can get a fine of 500 rubles.

The concept of "making changes to the design of a vehicle" is given in the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union "":

making changes to the design of the vehicle - the exclusion of those provided or the installation is not provided by the design specific vehicle constituent parts and items of equipment made after the release of the vehicle into circulation and affecting road safety;

This definition does not give an unambiguous answer to the question of what exactly refers to components and equipment that affect safety:

"vehicle safety" - a state characterized by a combination of design parameters and technical condition a vehicle that ensures the inadmissibility or minimization of the risk of harm to the life or health of citizens, property of individuals and legal entities, state or municipal property, the environment;

However, in technical regulations there is Appendix No. 9, which, among other things, contains a list of individual (not all) design changes:

• Replacing the body type of a truck.
• Installation of additional fuel tanks.
• Installation of lifts and winches on trucks.
• Installation of special equipment.
• Installation and dismantling of HBO.
• Replacement of external lighting devices (including the installation of xenon or diode lamps).
• Re-equipment of a car for persons with disabilities.

All of the above points are guaranteed to apply to changes in the design of the vehicle. If you perform them without permission, you can get a fine of 500 rubles.

As for the installation of other equipment, it remains unclear in which cases it should be attributed to changes in the design of the vehicle.

For example, installing custom bumpers made from a different material (metal instead of plastic). Obviously, this tuning option affects the safety of the car in the event.

Another example. Installing the DVR windshield car. On the one hand, the installation is elementary and should not affect security. On the other hand, if the airbags are deployed, they can "pull" the recorder's power wire, tear it off the glass and send it "flying" around the cabin.

If you want to change your fixtures just for the looks, it's not worth it. the cost of effort, time and finances will be large.

Good luck on the roads!

Tell me, please, when installing the following on the Prado 120, what can cause problems with the traffic police?

Hello, they made a convertible out of an old car, are you interested in whether the traffic police officers will be able to take it to the impound lot or only a fine of 500 rubles?

Hello.

For changing the design, penalties in the form of a fine and in the form of cancellation of registration are possible. The parking lot does not apply to the situation.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello! Today, a policeman made comments to me on the trunk that is installed on the body of a VAZ 2107 car, is it possible to install a trunk on a car?

Nizami, describe in more detail what kind of trunk you mean.

In any case, if the car's documentation allows the use of such a trunk, and there are documents for the trunk itself, then there should be no problems with its use.

Good luck on the roads!

Good night. Is it possible to convert the VAZ 2109 externally to the VAZ 2114 without making changes?

Good afternoon. No change - no.

Traffic police officers say that I don’t have children’s shelves on the Gazelle for transporting children, the Gazelle passed to me without shelves from another organization. DPS says there will be a fine. Please explain what the fine is and whether they can impose it.

Good afternoon! Tell me, the car has already installed lambodoors that lean up, but they have two positions, it opens like a regular door to the side and leans up, now we will register the car, but it is not registered in the TCP this modification, what will be the fine and is it considered a violation at all? In fact, the doors remained factory, only the hinges were replaced.

Ivan:

1. Contact the vehicle manufacturer and check if the specified equipment was installed from the factory.

2. It doesn't matter who exactly removed the structural elements. Responsible for the condition of the car, its current owner.

3. If the traffic police considers that there is a design change that affects safety, then a fine may be imposed.

Good luck on the roads!

Julia, hello.

1. The fine is always the same - 500 rubles. Plus, the registration of the car can be cancelled.

2. If the traffic police considers that there has been a design change, then a fine will be imposed. In practice, it all depends on the employees. So far, I have not heard that someone was fined for the door. However, in general this is possible.

Good luck on the roads!

Halogen lenses are installed on the prior in the optics, how does the law apply to this?

Sergey-838

Hello! Please tell me, will the dismantling of passenger seats from the passenger compartment of a UAZ 2206 bus, registered in the TCP as a passenger one, be considered a change in design that requires registration?

Good evening. Yes, for this they can cancel the registration of t / s.

Alexander-208

What if I have quick-release seats in my 7+1 minibus?

Good evening. Are quick-release seats included in the factory package? Because of this option, the vehicle does not "turn" into a vehicle of another category?

Alexander-208

Then you are in no danger.

Alexander-208

Rifat, are you a new employee on the site, or what?

Didn't know there were employees. No, I'm a driver with 30 years of experience. (Former traffic police officer). And I also know how to use the search on the Internet, analyze information, compare with official documents.

Basically, I support my answers with official information.

Alexander-208

Understood thanks.

Sergei, Alexander if the design of the car initially provides for the possibility of removing the seats, then nothing needs to be legalized.

If it is assumed that the old seats or their fastenings will simply be "sawed off", then the changes must be legalized.

Good luck on the roads!

Alexander-898

And how can you legalize a complete alteration of a car into an all-terrain vehicle?

Currently, comments and questions on articles are accepted on the SDA club forum.

Both buying and selling a car is a rather serious process. Both of these events are closely related - one buys, the other sells. And, unfortunately, there are enough scammers in the automotive market, the danger of running into them exists not only for the buyer, but also for the seller. And with the introduction of new rules for the transfer of car ownership, which have simplified this procedure, car sales should be given Special attention. Today we will talk about how to properly and safely sell a car according to the new rules.

Selling a car is usually not fast. First you need to find "your" buyer. Before putting up a car for sale, whether it is an online platform or automotive market, produce the so-called pre-sale preparation, which includes minor repairs, replacement of consumables, painting parts, getting rid of rust stains, washing the body and engine, cleaning the interior, etc.

In addition, it is necessary to prepare mentally - to find the official reason for the sale. In any case, the buyer will be interested in why the car is for sale, and it is necessary to find an answer that will not arouse particular suspicion. Although it all depends on the buyer - someone is interested appearance, and someone will carefully listen to the noise of the engine. During the sale process, many times you will have to show the car to no avail and go for diagnostics at the expense of a potential buyer.

But when a real buyer who is really ready to buy a car has been found, and the sale price has been specifically determined and agreed upon by both parties, it's time to deal with the legal side of the issue, in which, just the same, legislative changes have been made. Officials decided to simplify the purchase and sale procedure for motorists by reducing bureaucratic delays. Now, when selling a car, you do not need to remove it from the register, which is a definite plus for the seller. But at the same time, the risks of the buyer increase, who can detect some problems with the car only at the moment when he registers it with the nearest traffic police, which means that the property is already his property, and there is no escape from these problems. According to the simplified scheme of selling a car, all actions with registration are performed only by the buyer(and now he has 10 days to do this) - the seller has absolutely nothing to do with it. The seller's business is only to find this buyer, make a deal with him, receive money and transfer documents and keys. The remaining actions fall on the shoulders of the acquiring party. Thus, when selling a car, it is no longer required to deregister it, it is only necessary to conclude a legally competent contract for its sale.

​

The contract of sale of a car is the most important legal document that defines the relationship between the seller and the buyer regarding the vehicle, and on the basis of which the transfer of ownership takes place from one owner to another. Many use outdated contract forms, while according to the new rules, its form should also be slightly changed. If you use old forms, you can draw up an agreement incorrectly, then it simply loses its legal force, and this is fraught with troubles and problems for both the buyer and the seller.

The contract is drawn up between the parties in a simple written/printed form, in two copies. Neither at the notary, nor anywhere else, you do not need to certify such a document.

The new car sale agreement states:

• The settlement where the contract is drawn up, the date of its preparation.
• Data of the parties, their passport data, registration data.
• Subject of sale: the car itself, where it is indicated full specifications, according to the vehicle passport (model name, engine, body and chassis numbers, color, year of manufacture, l / s, kW, load capacity, etc.)
• Identification numbers and data of the vehicle passport.
• The total cost of the car, it is indicated in numbers and in words.
• The state number and data of the vehicle registration certificate can be entered as a separate clause in the contract at the request of the seller or buyer, but are not mandatory. The requirement to mandatory indicate these data in the contract by traffic police inspectors who re-register the vehicle is not legal.

When drawing up a contract, it is important to be guided by the principle of completeness of information, it must be exhaustive and not allowing any interpretations.

As for the physical execution of the contract of sale, its approximate form can be downloaded a little lower in this article. Most often, the form is left as it is, just fill in the necessary lines. But you can download the form in a format where there is editing, and add certain important and significant points. As a rule, one of the parties organizes the forms. As a piece of advice: after downloading the form, it is best to fill it out immediately, on a computer, and completely - both on one side and on the other. Different filling out of the contract is not allowed, it can be filled out:

• On the computer (fully printed version).
• By hand (filling in the data in the left lines with a ballpoint, capillary blue pen, filling in with a color other than blue (for example, black, red) is not allowed).

You need to fill out the document either in the first or in the second way. That is, it is impossible, for example, to print the data of one side on a computer, bring it to the other side, and she, in turn, fills in her data by hand. This should not be. It is best to make the contract completely in printed form, where only signatures will be affixed with a pen. If the lines of the contract are filled out by hand, then it is necessary to start writing from the very beginning of the line, and put a dash at the end to exclude any “writing” by unscrupulous parties. Also, when filling out a document with a pen, no blots and "misprints" are allowed.

We draw up an act of acceptance and transfer of the vehicle

It is also recommended to draw up between the parties an act of acceptance and transfer of the car, where the data of the seller (transferring party) and the buyer (receiving party), identification data of the vehicle are duplicated, and the place is necessarily prescribed ( locality) and date of transfer. It is also important to indicate in the act the fact of the transfer of documents for the car and the keys to it to the buyer. Both parties sign this act, in duplicate, for the seller it is a confirming document that he really transferred the property along with keys and documents, and not just took money for the car. This action will protect the seller, in case of presentation of unreasonable claims to him.

Of course, you can do without the act of transfer of the object of sale. But then such clauses should be entered into the sales contract itself, where lines like “car handed over” and “car accepted” will go separately. It would also be useful to include a clause stating that new owner received a set of keys and documents. There are enough scammers on the part of buyers, so it’s better to protect yourself with similar clauses in the contract, or in a separate act. Ideally, you can also invite witnesses to the transfer of the car, who are not interested in this transaction.

Care should be taken when selling and about TCP. Concern about the compliance of this document with the rules falls entirely on the shoulders of the seller, as the actual owner of the car. The most important thing before the direct sale and conclusion of the contract is to make sure that there is enough space in the vehicle passport to make another entry indicating the change of ownership of the car. If there is no place, and, therefore, it will be impossible to make this entry, then the traffic police will refuse to re-register the car to a new person. Only the owner can make a new passport for the car, and the owner before re-registration is previous owner, even if the sale contract is signed and the object is directly transferred to the new owner. If the traffic police refuses to register the buyer who purchased the property, then the latter will still be forced to contact the seller to make a new TCP. So these problems cannot be avoided. Therefore, a place in the vehicle passport should be taken care of in advance. If it doesn't exist, get a new one. If there is, then there is nothing to worry about.

If the seller or buyer is a third party

There are some special cases of buying and selling a car. These are cases where the buyer or seller is only a third party in the transaction. That is, either one or the other (or maybe both) act on behalf of someone else.

In this case, the presence of such a document as a power of attorney is required. And not just a power of attorney, but notarized. If the seller of the car is not its owner, then you should take care in advance of issuing a power of attorney, where the real owner will give the person the right to make any legal transactions with the vehicle, including its sale. Such a document must be issued personally by the owner of the property before a notary. If there is one full name in the vehicle passport, and another name in the seller’s passport, then, in the absence of such a power of attorney, the sale transaction will be considered invalid.

The buyer, who subsequently will not be the owner of the car, should also acquire a power of attorney from the future owner, on whose behalf he acts. The full name of the buyer is entered into the purchase and sale agreement on the part of the buyer, but in the passport of the vehicle - the full name of the new owner of the car, to whom it will be issued.
