The registration certificate will have <strong>one or two parts</strong>, this varies according to national rules in your country. Your car registration certificate <strong>has to be recognised by other EU countries</strong> when you travel or move to another EU country. If you need to re-register your car in another EU country, you will have to submit the original car registration certificate to the registration authorities in your new country.

Some EU countries may require additional documents before re-registering your car, so you should check the exact requirements in your new country. </p> <p> You should have your car registration certificate with you when travelling by car or when moving abroad. <strong>Part I is sufficient</strong> if the document has two parts. </p> <p> <a data-linkid="1a9203dd-617c-41c1-81ee-b75102adf029" href="https://road-safety.transport.ec.europa.eu/road-safety-member-states/vehicle-registration-certificate_en" title="Find more information on your vehicle registration document">Find more information on your vehicle registration document</a> (security features etc.) and the models used in other EU countries. </p> <h2> Proof of ownership </h2> <p> You may be asked to prove that you are the legal owner of the vehicle.

VAT rules vary depending on whether your car is new or used and whether you buy it from a professional dealer or from a private individual. </p> <p> For VAT purposes, a new car has done no more than 6 000 km OR has been in use for no more than 6 months.

It can be<strong> either a European (EC) or a national certificate</strong>. </p> <h3> EC certificate of conformity </h3> <p> The EC certificate of conformity is valid in all EU countries. If your car has a valid EC certificate, national authorities cannot request any additional technical documentation - unless your car has been modified since leaving the factory, they can then require it to undergo a new approval. </p> <h3> National certificate of conformity </h3> <p> The national certificate of conformity is valid only in the country of issue. It is usually issued for buses, trucks, vans, trailers and custom-built vehicles produced before May 2009 or vintage cars. </p> <p> If your car is already registered and you move it to another EU country, the authorities in your new country will often require additional technical checks or certificates before re-registering your vehicle. </p> <div class="warning sr-friendly"><svg focusable="false" aria-hidden="true"> <use href="/youreurope/citizens/images/ecl/ecl-eu-icons.svg#warning"></use></svg><div> <h4 class="sr-only">Warning</h4> <p> The information on this page does not apply to UK nationals residing in the EU and EU nationals residing in the UK.
