Change registration certificate I

Personal changes (in the case of first and last names, for example, due to marriage or divorce) must be changed in the registration certificates Part I and Part II.

An exclusive change of address is possible online under certain conditions. For more information, see the service description "Online - change of address in the registration certificate Part I (ZB I)".

What documents do I need?

• valid identity card, passport or electronic residence permit (eAT) as well as the original national passport of the applicant vehicle owner
• in case of representation with written power of attorney
  

  Additionally: identity card or passport of the authorized person

• Registration certificate part I or vehicle registration document
• in case of change of address
  

  it is not necessary to present the certificate of approval Part II.
  BUT: If an old vehicle registration document is still available: this and the old vehicle registration document

• valid test report on a general inspection
  

  e.g. TÜV, DEKRA, GTÜ, KÜS, GTS, FSP

• if registered to companies
  

  additionally:
  - Current and valid business registration and, if available, current and valid excerpt from the commercial register (also as a copy)
  - Power of attorney, if the person authorized to dispose does not personally submit the application on site

• Registration certificate part II (formerly: vehicle registration document)
  

  If the ZB II is in the possession of a third party (e.g. leasing bank), it must be sent to the licensing authority. The change can only be made once the document has been received by the authority. As a rule, the ZB II is available at the licensing authority 2 to 3 weeks after it is requested. After completion, it is returned to the sender. The costs for storage and return are usually borne by the holder.
