eluquenson: I just bought a registered car from someone. I want to change the ownership to mine then I spoke with someone working in a licensing office which he told me I will need to get my own new plate number alongside the change of ownership for a fee of 30k. The car already has a new plate number.

Does it mean i can't change ownership without changing the license plate?

Your candid advice will be appreciated.

Really?
What a white lie.
So long the vehicle is registered with a new plate number, all you need is a change of vehicle particulars to be in your name...
That should cost 15k Max..

Contact Mr Johnson on Nairaland, he will do it for you swiftly.

From my findings, the licensing dude may have told you the truth. Johnson can confirm that.

He even billed me 38k
Re: Car Change Of Ownership by chillex8(m): 10:06pm On Aug 22, 2014
eluquenson: He even billed me 38k

Same johnson billed me 15k sometime in April, Unless there is a new law in place which I doubt.

How come when the old plates where still in place, one doesn't have to change plates when doing a change of vehicle particulars

Johnson said it's 35k cos I called him this night. He also said the new plate number can't be transferred to a new user.

It was the initial licensing officer I spoke with yesterday that billed me 38k not Johnson.

what are the documents u collected backing the registered car u bought? i actually bought a fairly used car last week Monday here in abuja. we signed the sales agreement, he gave me all the documents of his car ( plate num receipt, old and renewed vehicle particulars, insurance, proof of ownership etc) we then signed another letter in respect of transfer of ownership. Hence, with all these i took to VIO office in Mabushi, gave the chap 14,500 and behold, the vehicle particulars came in my name (though they made a copy for their record)

Thanks for the info.

New plate numbers are tied to owners name and not to the vehicle. That's why the officer recommended a new one. 30k is around the correct price. But if the plate number is old I suggest you just use it the way it is and renew yearly in the previous owners name. As far as you have your purchase/change of ownership agreement than nothing do you. Just Renew the damn papers yearly for about 5k than facing the wahala of new registration. After all a court recently ruled the new plate numbers as not compulsory so no worries.

Re: Car Change Of Ownership by princemillla(m): 4:15am On Oct 21, 2016
I actually was going to open a thread like this but guess op already clear the ground for me.

I will like to hear from partybf achugulatan or what's the name again.

Is it possible to change ownership without changing information on the plate number or buying another one.
Have once tried this and I was surprised my assigned plate number wasn't registered with my car. Anytime I checked online I always got "ur plate number is active yet to be assigned to any vehicle" then I knew I would never apply to re register already registered vehicle again but do change of ownership on the documents

So my question partybf and others,
1. is it possible for a car to carry different name on documents showing prove of ownership and plate number. Bear in mind, all payment to renew document are all tied to the information on the plate number.

2. If it's possible, won't it contradict it self wen applying for say tinted permit. Where you have to upload your proof of ownership, and insurance number ?

3. Is there any side effect to these change or better what is the better way to go about it if one just purchased an already registered car wit the new plate number.

Thanks

Ps. I want to process mine, so I need clarification. Thanks again

once u purchase a registered vehicle, u can either continue to renew d documents on d former owners name and use, this is only if d former owner takes d risk of allowing u to keep d no plate;

or u apply to get a change of ownership/reregistration /replacement as d case may be. under this, u will be required to get a new no plate, this is d only way u can get ur name on d documents.


there is no way a particular vehicle's documents can ve different names on them.

also, u cannot process d new online tinted permit for a vehicle ur name is not yet on d documents.

I hope I answered all ur questioning.
