In 2010, a new procedure for registering vehicles was approved on the territory of Russia of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which has one moment that is important and regarding the legalization of cars.
Some motorists face a situation in which, despite the fact that they, being law -abiding citizens, during the registration of the recently purchased vehicle find out that the car passport (TCP) is invalid because it is registered for former owners or has other flaws. The sellers of the car have long disappeared.
Does not need to be too upset, since this unpleasant situation can be solved in your favor.
First you need to find out how much customs duties were made, and you also need to find out everything that is related to the previous owners of your vehicle.
You need to make inquiries whether your car was registered before and why only now obscure details from his biography surfaced now. The traffic police inspector should take into account the statute of limitations of the past registration of the vehicle. If more than five years have passed after the previous registration, but the problems were identified only today, then you can not cancel registration after the statute of limitations.
