Sellers of used cars and their parts are no longer required to re-register used vehicles..

In addition, it is not necessary to submit documents with a mark from the Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support to the service centers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the registration and deregistration of such vehicles..
