The procedures to follow to obtain a vehicle registration certificate online

To complement our article on how to register your vehicle online, we will detail the steps involved in this process. While it may seem easy at first glance, it’s always necessary to understand exactly what needs to be done. First, you need to find the correct website, such as the ANTS website; then, fill out the required application form; and finally, submit the necessary documents and pay the fees.Finding the right website to register your vehicle online This step is crucial because the internet is full of both legal and illegal websites. Previously, issuing vehicle registration certificates was a process reserved for the prefecture. Today, any website with state authorization can issue and send a vehicle registration certificate. This authorization allows the website to access the state vehicle registration system (SIV). Thanks to the online support available on these websites, you can request their authorization number and thus ensure the legality of your application.

Completing the online form

In order for the website to have the necessary information to register on the vehicle registration certificate (carte grise), it is essential to complete the form it provides. This generally includes your first and last name, address, and other contact information, as well as details about the vehicle. More commonly known as form Cerfa 13750 (formerly), this form contains various important data that you can verify before finalizing your online vehicle registration application.

Therefore, regarding vehicle information, its type must be specified: is it a commercial vehicle or a two-wheeler, etc.? Also include its registration year and its tax horsepower (the number of tax horsepower) and the type of fuel used.

Sending Documents and Paying Fees Although sending personal documents may cause some apprehension, this type of shipment presents very little risk, if any. Indeed, the professionalism of parcel delivery companies and the option of sending registered mail ensure real security for individuals in their transactions. The documents to be sent differ depending on whether it is a new or used vehicle.

For a new vehicle, the documents to prepare include, among others, the vehicle purchase invoice, a photocopy of the owner’s driver’s license, and proof of address. For a used car, you will need, among other things, a photocopy of the vehicle inspection certificate, a copy of the owner’s driver’s license, and a copy of the vehicle insurance certificate.

Regarding the fees for registering a vehicle online, these depend on the website, the vehicle, and the region. The cost can range from €40 to over €1,000. As for payment methods, bank cards are the most commonly used for online transactions.
