According to regulations from August 15, when selling a vehicle, the owner must keep the vehicle registration certificate and license plate and submit them to the vehicle registration agency to complete the revocation procedure.
 |
| From August 15, the only case where a vehicle can be sold with a license plate is a vehicle with a license plate that won an auction. |
Circular 24 of the Ministry of Public Security, effective from August 15, stipulates that license plates for cars and motorbikes are issued and managed according to the vehicle owner's identification code, also known as identification license plates.
When selling a car, the owner must return the license plate to the vehicle registration agency.
The identification plate will follow the owner and not the vehicle, so when selling the vehicle, the owner must return the plate to the vehicle registration agency.
Specifically, from August 15, when transferring vehicle ownership (selling, giving away, inheriting...), the vehicle owner must retain the vehicle registration certificate, license plate and submit it to the vehicle registration agency to complete the revocation procedure.
Within 30 days from the date of vehicle ownership transfer paperwork, the vehicle owner must complete the repossession procedure.
In case the vehicle owner fails to complete the revocation procedure or hand over the vehicle registration certificate and license plate to the organization or individual receiving the vehicle ownership transfer to complete the revocation procedure within the above deadline, he/she will be fined.
At the same time, if the vehicle owner does not complete the revocation procedure after transferring vehicle ownership, he/she must be legally responsible for any violations related to that vehicle.
The penalty for selling a vehicle without returning the license plate will be applied according to the provisions of Decree No. 100/2019 of the Government.
Specifically, motorbikes and scooters will be fined from VND800,000 to VND2 million (individuals), VND1.6 million to VND4 million (organizations) when not complying with the revocation of vehicle registration and license plates as prescribed.
For cars, if this violation occurs, the fine will be from 2 to 4 million VND (individual), from 4 to 8 million VND (organization).
Points to note
Previously, Colonel Nguyen Quang Nhat - Head of the Department of Traffic Accident Investigation and Resolution (Traffic Police Department) - said that the only case where a vehicle can be sold with a license plate from August 15 is a vehicle using a license plate that won an auction.
Accordingly, for cars with auction-winning license plates, the owner has the right to choose 2 cases. Specifically, if the ownership of a car is transferred without the auction-winning license plate, the license plate revocation and vehicle registration procedures are also carried out as for the identification license plate above.
If the car is sold with the auction winning license plate, the car owner does not have to return the auction winning license plate but must submit a copy of the vehicle ownership transfer document and present the original for comparison.
The buyer of the car with the winning auction license plate must also complete the vehicle registration procedure to be able to register and keep the winning auction license plate. The ownership transfer document must clearly state the content "transferring the car with the winning auction license plate".
Notably, in case the buyer of the vehicle with the winning auction license plate will not be able to transfer ownership of the vehicle with the winning auction license plate to another person.
In this case, the vehicle can only be sold separately and the auction winning license plate can be retained to register another vehicle owned by the owner within 12 months.
Also according to Colonel Nhat, according to Circular 24, district and county police will register cars and motorbikes of domestic organizations and individuals with headquarters and residence in the locality.
Commune and ward police are allowed to issue motorbike license plates to domestic organizations and individuals with headquarters and residence in the locality.
Thus, the vehicle owner must register the vehicle in the locality where he/she resides (permanent or temporary).
Besides, the authorities do not limit the number of identification plates of people.
In case a citizen has a new vehicle, if the old identification plate is still registered to a vehicle owned by the citizen, the citizen will be issued another identification plate. However, all these plates are identified to one person.
