1. Obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC)

The first step in transferring your vehicle registration is to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the RTO where your vehicle is currently registered. This certificate is essential as it indicates that there are no pending dues or legal issues associated with your vehicle.

• Application in Form 28
• Registration Certificate (RC) of the vehicle
• Insurance certificate
• Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate
• Address proof
• Identity proof

2. Transport Your Vehicle to the New State

Once you have the NOC, you can transport your vehicle to the new state. You can either drive it yourself or use a vehicle transport service.

3. Visit the New State’s RTO

After reaching the new state, visit the local RTO to initiate the re-registration process. You will need to submit several documents and pay the applicable fees.

• Application in Form 20 and Form 27
• Original Registration Certificate (RC)
• NOC obtained from the previous RTO
• Address proof in the new state
• Identity proof
• Insurance certificate
• Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate
• Chassis & Engine Pencil Print
• PAN Card or Form 60 and Form 61 (as applicable)

4. Pay the Road Tax

You will need to pay the road tax applicable in the new state. The amount varies from state to state and is usually a percentage of the vehicle’s original cost.

5. Verification and Inspection

The RTO will conduct a physical inspection of your vehicle to verify the details provided. This step ensures that the vehicle matches the documents submitted.

6. Issuance of New Registration Number

Once all the documents are verified and the inspection is complete, the RTO will issue a new registration number for your vehicle. This process might take a few weeks, so be prepared for some waiting time.

7. Refund of Road Tax from Previous State

After obtaining the new registration number, you can apply for a refund of the road tax paid in the previous state. This process involves submitting an application along with the proof of payment of road tax in the new state and the new registration certificate.

• Application for road tax refund
• Proof of road tax payment in the new state
• New Registration Certificate (RC)
• Old Registration Certificate (RC)
• Address proof
