Would you like to apply for a one-day registration? You can find out more here.

  • Basic information

    From 01.09.2023, day registration of a vehicle is possible. Upon application, the initial registration of a vehicle subject to registration can also be carried out for the duration of only the day on which the initial registration takes effect (one-day registration). A daily registration does not require the license plates to be stamped. The day registration can be applied for online via the "internet-based vehicle registration".

    Further information on "internet-based vehicle registration" can be found on the website of the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport Affairs (see "Further information").

    Requirements

    • No overdue fees and expenses from previous registration processes.
      In the event of payment arrears, the registration authority may not register the vehicle until these have been settled.
    • No motor vehicle tax arrears (including ancillary tax payments, such as interest, late payment penalties).
      The vehicle tax accounts are checked by the registration office as part of the processing of the registration application. In the event of tax arrears, the registration authority may not register the vehicle until these have been settled.
    • Written direct debit authorization for the collection of vehicle tax
    • Registration only at the main residence of the owner

    Proof of the right of disposal of the vehicle owner to be registered:

  • Procedure

    Upon application, the first registration of a vehicle subject to registration can also be carried out for the duration of the day on which the first registration takes effect (day registration). In the case of day registration, no stamping of the license plates is required.
    At the end of the day of initial registration, the vehicle is deemed to have been taken out of service without the need for a separate application in accordance with Section 16 (1) FZV. The competent registration authority notes the date of initial registration and the date of decommissioning in the registration certificate part I. In addition, the security code is released in accordance with § 13 Paragraph 1 Sentence 2 FZV and a temporary registration certificate is issued. A vehicle with a daily registration may be put into operation on public roads with the prescribed license plates without stamp plates or sticker holders for the duration of the registration. When the vehicle is put into operation on public roads, the person driving the vehicle must display the provisional registration certificate in the vehicle so that it is clearly legible from the outside until the end of the day of initial registration.

    • The application can also be submitted by a representative (e.g. car dealer) with a written power of attorney.
    • If a special license plate is desired, the reservation can be made in person, in writing or by telephone before the day of registration, as well as online via the Internet.
    • The insurance company is automatically informed by the registration authority about the allocation of the license plate.
