Delhi Transport Department authorise vehicle dealers to issue temporary RCs

• Thursday | 24th June, 2021

The Delhi Transport Department has authorised self-registration vehicle dealers to issue temporary registration certificates (RCs) for newly sold non-transport vehicles from their outlets. The authority to issue temporary RCs was with motor licensing officers so far. In an order passed on Tuesday night, the state transport department said the temporary registration certificates to be issued by the dealers will be valid for a month. These 'self-registration' dealers have the authority to issue temporary registration of new non-transport (personal) vehicles sold from their outlets. Now, vehicle dealers will be able to issue these temporary certificates, which will be valid till the vehicle is permanently registered where the owner resides.
