Vehicle registration - re-registering a vehicle to the same owner

Service Description

If you want to use your deregistered vehicle on the road again, you must first re-register it.

This is a re-registration to the same owner if you are the person who was previously registered as the owner of the vehicle. If there has been a change of keeper, this is referred to as re-registration to a different keeper.

You can submit the application in person to the registration authority responsible for you or appoint a representative to do so.

Process flow

Re-registration via the Internet

You can also apply for re-registration via the website of the responsible registration authority if you were the last owner of the vehicle when it was deregistered and the same registration authority is still responsible for you.

The following are also required

  • an identity card with electronic proof of identity function
  • a new registration certificate part I (vehicle registration document)
  • a license plate reservation made at the time of deregistration (decommissioning)

Note

The new registration certificate part I (the vehicle registration document) has a concealed, but releasable security code on it, which can be recognized by a silver sticker.

Who should I contact?

  • For natural persons:
    Please contact the licensing authority of your place of residence; if you have more than one residence, please contact the licensing authority of the place of your main residence.
  • For legal entities, commercial enterprises or public authorities:
    Please contact the licensing authority of the registered office or the location of the branch or office involved.
    If there is no registered office, branch or office in Germany, the licensing authority of the place of residence or the place of stay of an authorized recipient is responsible.
