Things To Do As A Buyer

Firstly, there has some required task for a buyer to transfer ownership of the car.  First of all, the buyer’s signature should be taken on the prescribed form ‘Too,’ and the buyer’s sample signature should be taken at the designated place of ‘TTO.’ This form can be found on BRTA’s website. The original copy of the receipt has to be submitted to BRTA by depositing the prescribed fee.
Afterwards, the buyer must attest the TIN Certificate, National Identity Card, current home address telephone bill or electricity bill, copies of the original Registration Certificate, Digital Registration Certificate, and updated tax-token fitness, route permit documents.

An affidavit of 200 TK with a photo or non-judicial stamp prescribed by the government should be submitted after finishing the tasks. If the buyer is an organization, then the letter must be given on the official pad instead of the affidavit. All other information on the form, including the buyer’s signature and 3 copies of stamp size colour photograph, must be submitted in English capital letters. The car has to be brought to the BRTA office for display. If there is any problem with the seller’s signature, he has to present it at the BRTA office.

Things To Do As A Seller

In addition to the buyer tasks, there has also some necessary tasks. The seller has to sign on the TTO form and sales receipt. If you are the car’s seller, you have to submit an affidavit of TK 200 along with a photo or non-judicial stamp prescribed by the government. If the seller is a company, its letterhead pad has to give intimation, board resolution, and authorization letter.

If the car is liable to the bank or any other institution, the debtor will have to submit the loan repayment certificate, loan adjustment statement, a request from the bank assistant director, and affidavit on 200 TK non-judicial stamp prescribed by the government. An attested photocopy of the seller’s national identity card must be submitted. If there is any discrepancy in the seller’s signature, he has to appear in the office.
