## Questions and Answers

 
### Requirements and necessary documents for the local registration office

 

Requirements on site:

* You are registered as having your main residence in Munich.
* For legal entities, commercial enterprises, tradespeople: Munich is the place of business (head office or branch office)
* You already have German vehicle documents for the vehicle. If not, you must observe the information on registering a foreign vehicle.

documents required on site:

* Do you have a foreign passport without a signature? Then you can present a copy of the passport and a copy of the driving licence. The driving licence must contain a photo and a signature and you must be registered in Munich.
* Identity card or passport
* For legal entities, companies and associations: Extract from the commercial or association register (not older than 3 years from issue) and business registration
* For minors: Declaration of consent from the legal guardian. If only one parent has parental authority, this must be proven by a custody order or a court judgement
* In the case of guardianship for "official and administrative matters": Carer's identity card
* For proxies: written power of attorney (original) as well as ID of the authorised representative (original) and ID of the principal (copy).
* Declaration of consent from the vehicle owner that the authorised representative may be informed of the vehicle tax circumstances.

### Important information for the online registration of a motorbike

 

Due to their size, motorbikes have limited space for licence plates.

The legally prescribed size cannot be implemented here. Especially with an "E" or "H" licence plate.

### Attention:

If you want to register a motorbike online, you need a special licence plate. A*randomly selected licence plate* is not technically feasible here and the allocated licence plate is too large.

If you would like to register a licence plate**with the suffix "E" or "H"**, please contact the registration office in advance[(via the contact form)](https://service.muenchen.de/intelliform/forms/01/02/02/kontaktformularzulassungsstelle/index), as you will need a particularly short licence plate for this.

   
### What is a day registration?

 

Upon application, the initial registration can also be carried out for the duration of one day only. A day registration does not require the licence plates to be stamped. 

   
### Electric vehicles - are there any special features to consider?

 

* Electric motorbikes: For online registration, please contact the registration office in advance for a suitable licence plate. Only certain licence plates fit these vehicles. In order to be able to provide enough licence plates, these are not approved for all vehicles and must be applied for separately. You can contact us directly via the "Contact form registration office".  
   If you register on site, you can apply for this on the spot.
* Electric cars: There may be space problems with particularly long licence plate combinations. The responsible clerk will be happy to help you.
   
### Do I get the licence plate when I apply for registration?

 

Once we have prepared your registration application, the next step is to buy the licence plates. There are several private providers in the vicinity of the registration office and the citizens' offices. You will have to pay the price for the licence plates separately. These costs are not included in the fees. You must present the registration application to the manufacturer as proof of your authorisation.  
 You must then come back to us so that we can affix the official stickers to the licence plates and stamp them.

   
### Can I reserve a licence plate?

 

You have the option of reserving a licence plate of your choice.  
 As the City of Munich does not have enough shortened licence plates (2 letters and 3 numbers) available for everyone, cars without the suffix "E" (electric) or "H" (historic) or with a seasonal period may only be registered on normal licence plate sizes (2 letters and 4 numbers). The licence plate reservation must be made by the future holder or entered in the licence plate reservation.  
 A licence plate reservation is only accepted with identical holder data.

   
### What do I have to do if a vehicle registration document has not yet been issued for the vehicle?

 - If a registration certificate part II (vehicle registration document) has not yet been issued for the vehicle, you must present the vehicle for identification.
- The identification can be carried out by any German registration authority, by recognised experts, by inspectors for motor vehicle traffic or by test engineers from an officially recognised inspection organisation.
- If a registration certificate part II (vehicle registration document) has not yet been issued for the vehicle, we also require a sales contract.
   
### What if a vehicle registration certificate has already been issued?

 

If a registration certificate Part II has already been issued by another registration authority, it may still be necessary to identify the vehicle in some cases. Please contact the registration authority to clarify whether this applies in your case.  


   
### Where can I deal with my request?

 

Vehicle registration services and dealers can only obtain their services directly from the registration authority (not from the citizens' offices).

If you have recently moved to Munich, you can also re-register your vehicle at one of the citizens' offices at the same time as you re-register your place of residence.

Vehicles with an operating licence (e.g. light motorbikes, trailers for sports purposes, trailers for work machines) can only be registered at the vehicle registration authority.
