Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzIf there is a change in the person of the owner, the previous holder or owner must immediately notify the competent registration authority for the purpose of amending the vehicle registers.
Depending on the offer of the licensing authority, a corresponding form is available for download.
There is no need to notify if the purchaser has already notified the licensing authority of the changes. Immediately after the change of ownership, the purchaser must inform the registration authority responsible for his place of residence or registered office of the new owner data and the vehicle data and, if requested, provide proof, apply for the issuance of a new registration certificate Part I on presentation of the proof of insurance and submit the registration certificate part II for modification (transfer).
If there is a change in the person of the owner (e.g. due to the sale of the vehicle), the previous owner or owner must inform the registration authority immediately. This serves to correct the vehicle register.
If the buyer has requested the issuance of a new registration certificate Part I, there is no need to notify the seller.
The seller remains the owner of the vehicle until it has been transferred to the new owner or taken out of service by the new owner. Until this time, you are obliged to pay the motor vehicle tax as well as the premium for liability insurance.
