State duty for making changes to the PTS in 2021

The concept of the subject

For motor vehicles, the duty is charged:

for registering a car;
for issuing a Russian and/or international driving license;
for issuing documents, including duplicates of documents;
for issuing license plates, including transit plates;
for making changes to the vehicle passport.

Payers of state duty are:

individuals who are owners of movable property;
legal entities whose balance sheet contains movable property registered in accordance with the established procedure.

The amount of state duty collected for performing any actions is established by Article 333.33 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.

Payment of the fee is made by property owners before contacting the traffic police or other organizations.

Fee when changing owner data

If personal data has changed or the car owner has changed the place of registration, it will be necessary to make adjustments to the title and other documents. In this case, there is no need to completely change the car’s passport; it is enough to make changes. The state duty will be 350 rubles. You can pay in any convenient way, including at MREO terminals. When contacting the specified authority, the owner of the car must prepare the following documents:

Passport;
A document that serves as the basis for changing personal data;
Old PTS;
Vehicle registration certificate;
Auto insurance policy (must be valid);
A receipt confirming payment of the duty.

The owner of the car himself can apply for changes to the vehicle passport, but if he has a properly executed power of attorney, this procedure can also be carried out by his representative. In this case, he will need to have in his hands all the above documents, as well as his passport and the power of attorney. Often, a new passport for a car is issued on the day of application, but if necessary, the period can be extended by MREO employees to one month.

Reasons for replacing a document

So, the vehicle title is the main document required for:

car registration;
sales, donations, inheritance, rent, etc.;
issuing an MTPL insurance policy.

The absence of a PTS does not allow the owner to perform these actions. If the document is missing for some reason, then you need to obtain a duplicate.

A duplicate PTS is issued for the following reasons:

The original document was lost by the owner. Many car owners carry their title with them, which leads to its loss;
the original PTS was stolen;
the document has become unusable due to wear and other factors. The information specified in the document cannot be read;
There are no free fields in the vehicle passport to indicate the registration data of the new car owner when the owner of the movable property changes.

Changes are made to the PTS (that is, the document is not replaced with a duplicate, and additional information is indicated in special marks), under the following circumstances:

making any changes to the design of road transport. For example, when replacing an engine, installing xenon headlights, and so on;
when changing the surname or changing the address of the owner.

If necessary, the PTS can be replaced at the registration department of the traffic police after providing the following documents:

a written statement indicating the reasons for changing the title. The application can be submitted directly to the traffic police (on a first-come, first-served basis or by appointment) or online through the government services website;
passport of the car owner or passport of the representative of the car owner. If an application is submitted by a representative, a written power of attorney is additionally required;

If the owner of the car is an individual, then the power of attorney is certified by a notary. If the owner of the car is a legal entity, then the power of attorney is signed by the manager.

registration certificate for the car, issued after registration with the traffic police;
a copy of the PTS (if preserved) in case of loss or theft of the document and the original vehicle passport in all other cases;
a valid compulsory car insurance policy;
a receipt confirming the advance payment of the state duty in accordance with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.
