Are you about to buy a new or used car and are you wondering what all needs to be arranged before you hit the road for the first time, and whether it is possible to register the car from your phone? In the following instructions, we will briefly and clearly introduce you to all the basic requirements.
How to register a used car
Registering the car is a necessary step if you want to drive your new car regularly. According to the law, you have ten days to register from the moment the transfer of ownership took place - i.e. from the payment for the car, from the valid signing of the purchase contract, or from the moment the court decided on the transfer of ownership. Registration must take place at an office with extended jurisdiction, but the good news is that it does not have to be an office in your place of permanent residence.
