Easier car registration

The Ministry of Public Security has given the green light to residents in 120 cities to have vehicle registration files changed and transferred online.

The ministry said in a notice on Friday that residents wishing to change their vehicles' registration location can submit their applications directly to the authorities at the new city where the vehicle is intended to be registered.

Applicants would no longer have to make a trip to the cities where the vehicles were registered previously, saving the trouble for vehicle owners to go back and forth between the two places for de-registration and re-registration.

The measure, the latest efforts made by the country to further the reform to streamline administration, enhance compliance oversight and improve services, will take effect starting from June after having been piloted in 15 cities last year, the ministry said.
