You may only sell a car to someone who is at least eighteen years old. In addition, a car may only be transferred into the name of a person living in the Netherlands and registered with a Dutch municipality. You may of course sell a car to someone from abroad, but then you and the buyer of the car must go to an RDW office to officially export the car.<\/p>\n<h2>License Plate Counter<\/h2>\n<p>Transferring a car is done at a license plate counter. This is a place where citizens and businesses can transfer vehicles, suspend and terminate suspensions. You can do this at almost all PostNL branches. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.postnl.nl\/locatiewijzer\/?f=8&amp;c=0\">Here<\/a> you can see which PostNL branches are affiliated as license plate counters. Some (auto) companies also allow you to transfer vehicles.<\/p>\n<h2>What papers do I need?<\/h2>\n<p>There is quite a bit of paperwork involved in selling a car. Fortunately, a lot goes digital these days. Physical items that must be transferred at a license plate counter are the paper license plate or the credit card-like plastic license plate. A tokenization code is also required. Provided that the registration certificate is not up-to-date (the latest version), a new registration certificate must first be requested from the RDW.<\/p>\n<h2>Step by step explanation<\/h2>\n<p>The following is a step-by-step explanation for selling a car.<\/p>\n<ol type=\"1\">\n<li><strong>The seller gives the following documents to the buyer:<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Registration certificate\/registration card with the vehicle registration code<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>The certificate of registration and registration certificate<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>The buyer arranges the transfer of the vehicle at a registration desk<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>The buyer receives a certificate of indemnification from an employee at the license plate office. This is proof, that the vehicle is no longer in the seller&#8217;s name. Safeguard certificate in? Then the seller may give the vehicle away!<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>The seller gives the buyer the vehicle certificate. The registration documents previously given may be kept by the seller. Also, the seller gives the buyer the MOT inspection report.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wat-moet-je-doen-als-de-apk-verlopen-is\/\">What should you do if the MOT has expired?<\/a><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-autorai-nl wp-block-embed-autorai-nl\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"r8i3KMWFPd\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wat-moet-je-doen-als-de-apk-verlopen-is\/\">What should you do if the apk has expired?<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What conditions must I meet to sell my car?
