The need for replacement and actions in case of loss
Not all motorists know that replacement is necessary not only in the event of a change in the owner of the car. In addition to situations of buying and selling a car and other methods of changing the owner, the replacement of the STS is carried out in the following situations:
- When changing the registration address of the owner of the car;
- When the owner of the car changes the last name (at will or due to marriage, divorce);
- When painting a car in a different color;
- When re-equipping a car - replacing parts or elements with others according to the type or principle or complementing the existing ones;
- When changing the elements of the machine, which are marked with serial numbers;
- At the end of the validity period (10 years after it was received).
If you have one of these conditions, you will need to write a statement indicating the reason for the need to obtain a new document and contact the traffic police department.
Often, situations also arise in which the owner of the car does not know where the STS is located or it has been lost. In this case, you also need to contact the traffic police, while filling out an application, which will indicate the data about the car, its state. number, the reason why you have lost the vehicle registration certificate, and also indicate your personal data. After submitting such an application and the necessary documentation, you will receive a new JTS.
The series and number of the car registration certificate are one of the most important data that traffic police inspectors may need to check the payment of the accrued fines by the driver, the presence of theft, and ownership of the vehicle. They will also be needed when removing and staging in the REO when buying and selling a car.
What is STS, SRTS of a car or COP? This is the short name for the vehicle registration certificate.
Where is the STS number? The series and number are on the reverse side of the COP at the very top next to the hologram, which is available on all STS of the new model. The series consists of four characters: 2 digits - space - 2 letters. For example, "11 AA". Next comes the certificate number, consisting of 6 digits. That is, in the end, we will be able to see the following record: "11 AA 112233".
pts and sts number match or not
The series and number of PTS (transport passports) and COP do not match. But, the information about the car must be the same. In addition, other specified technical data of the vehicle (VIN, vehicle make and model, body, engine number, etc.) are also identical. The passport contains all the data about the previous owners, the dates of re-examination, sale and purchase, by whom the SRTS was issued, the traffic police department code, the registration number is indicated, past Based on this information, you can trace the entire history of the car from the moment of the first sale in Russia to the present.
In addition, when buying / selling a car, remember that the wrong CTC format is indicated on Automotive News.
This is important for traffic police officers when checking a car theft now or in the past.
What if the STS is lost?
If the SRTS is lost, then in the presence of the PTS, it will not be difficult to restore the loss. Where is this possible? You need to personally come to the traffic police and write a corresponding statement, provide the owner's civil passport, vehicle passport, OSAGO policy and a receipt for payment of the state duty - 300 rubles.
State the numbers do not change. As a result, the owner receives a new STS, in which the series and number coincide with the PTS data. In the vehicle passport, in the column "Special marks", a record is made on the issue of a duplicate of the STS.
What to do if the title is lost
In case of loss, you must write a statement to the nearest ATC or traffic police department. It is necessary so that the kidnappers do not use the vehicle's passport to obtain a loan, drive a stolen car, provide a car as collateral for documents and other fraudulent activities. After writing the application, the owner receives a notification coupon.
Now, even if illegal actions with the use of a car or its passport are revealed, the owner will be protected from suspicion. To restore the TCP, you must personally provide a STS, a civil passport, an OSAGO policy. The state fee is 500 rubles, but that's not all. Pay attention to what letters the new series and TCP number will be written.
In order to ensure the identity of these data in both documents, the STS must also be replaced and another fee of 300 rubles will have to be paid for the issuance of a new STS. In the column "Special marks" of the PTS, the traffic police officer makes an entry: "The passport of the vehicle was lost under unknown circumstances, I exclude the fact of theft, date, signature" or another, depending on the conditions of the loss.
If ALL documents are lost
Of course, it is reckless to carry all the documents with you all the time, but some frivolous citizens do just that. This recovery option is the most troublesome and time-consuming. First of all, you will have to deal with the restoration of a civil passport in accordance with the established procedure. After the passport is restored, you need to pay a visit to the ATC, to the passport office, to the traffic police, to the insurance company.
See the order in which all lost documents are restored (some of the activities can be performed simultaneously):
- Vehicle passport
- TS certificate
- Medical Commission for obtaining a certificate for the restoration of rights to drive the vehicle
- Driver's license
- CTP policy
- Talon TO
The procedure is slightly simplified if the car was bought on credit or pledged at a bank. After handing over the passport, you can simply contact the bank and temporarily receive the PTS until the rest of the documents are restored. The most difficult case is if the car itself was stolen along with the loss of documents. With this option, the most unpleasant consequences can be expected.
What else may you need a series and STS number
When is it worth watching the STS of someone else's car before buying - whether the car is hijacked, whether there are fines for it, when there was the last MOT, whether it is pledged to the bank, whether all taxes have been paid. STS of your own car - any information that is available to someone else's car.
