If you have a tax debt in connection with a motor vehicle, you must settle this before registering another vehicle. In the case of short-term payments, you will receive a clearance certificate for presentation at the registration office.
Basic information
As overdue vehicle taxes cannot be "paid in" at the vehicle registration office, it is important to pay them before going to the registration office. Only when the vehicle tax debt has been settled may the registration office release the vehicle for use. If the outstanding vehicle tax has been paid into the account of the main customs office at short notice, the vehicle can only be registered once a clearance certificate from the customs administration has been presented.
Requirements
The prerequisite for the issue of a clearance certificate is the settlement of an existing motor vehicle tax debt.
