The traffic police will create a specialized register of car dealers who have the right to register new cars

Good afternoon, dear reader.

This article will discuss the state register of vehicles, which has existed in Russia since January 1, 2020 , as well as obtaining an extract from this register.

Let me remind you that from January 1, 2021, a new law “On State Registration of Vehicles” is in force, and in addition to it, rules for maintaining the state register of vehicles have been issued. It is this regulatory document that will be discussed today:

What information is contained in the vehicle registry?
Why can the vehicle register be useful?
What status can an entry in the registry have?
What extracts from the register can I get?
An abbreviated extract from the register.
Extended extract from the register.
How long does it take to issue an extract?
How to obtain an extract from the register through State Services?
Storing information about statements in the registry.
Receiving notifications about the car through State Services.

What information is contained in the vehicle registry?

Let's consider paragraph 7 of the rules for maintaining the registry:

7. The state register contains the following information:
a) information about the vehicle:
details of the vehicle passport (electronic vehicle passport);
state registration number;
identification number (VIN);
brand and (or) model (commercial name);
category (subcategory) of a vehicle established by the technical regulations of the Customs Union “On the safety of wheeled vehicles” and the Federal Law “On Road Safety”;
type;
year of issue;
model, number, type, power and engine displacement;
identification number of the main component of the vehicle (body, frame, cabin);
chassis number;
body (cabin) color;
environmental class;
equipped with equipment to supply the engine with gaseous fuel;
steering wheel location;
curb weight (weight without load) and technically permissible maximum weight (gross weight) for a vehicle intended for the transport of goods or equipment installed on it;
manufacturer;
b) information about the registration action:
date and name of the registration action;
details of the registration document;
the division of the State Road Safety Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation that carried out the registration action;
c) information about the owner of the vehicle:
for legal entities - full and abbreviated (if any) name of the organization, main state registration number of the entry in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, reason code for registration with the tax authority, taxpayer identification number, registration address;
for individual entrepreneurs - last name, first name, patronymic (if any), date and place of birth, taxpayer identification number, insurance number of an individual personal account, main state registration number of the entry in the Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs, registration address;
for individuals - last name, first name, patronymic (if available), date and place of birth, taxpayer identification number (if available), number of the main identification document, insurance number of an individual personal account, registration address at the place of residence and (or) place of stay;
d) information about changes in information contained in the state register.

So, the state register of vehicles is a database that contains information about all cars in the Russian Federation. The registry stores information about both the car itself and its owners.

Note. Information about cars registered with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate before January 1, 2021 should be transferred to the register automatically.

The operator of the registry is the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate.

9. Information contained in the state register is subject to permanent storage; its destruction or seizure is not allowed. If the information contained in the state register changes, the previously entered information is retained.

Paragraph 9 of the rules states that the register contains information not only about the current state of affairs in relation to the selected car, but also the entire previous history of this car.

For example, if the previous owner completely repainted the car and changed its color, then information about this will be stored in the registry.

What information is contained in the register?

The register is maintained taking into account the provisions of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 27, 2019 No. 1874. The traffic police is in charge of this. It contains all information about the availability of vehicles received before 01/01/2020, successfully transferred there.

What information about vehicles is in the unified register:

PTS details.
VIN and registration number.
Brand, model.
Category or subcategory.
Year of issue.
Engine information: model, power, number, volume.
Numbers of body, chassis, frame, cab.
Cabin or body color.
Environmental class.
Information on the availability of gas equipment.
Steering wheel location.
Curb weight, gross weight (maximum).
Manufacturer.

You can also get information about registration actions in the registry:

Date, type of action.
Details of the registration document.
Information about the owner of the car.
Information about the traffic police department in which the registration action was carried out.

If the owner is a legal entity, the extract will indicate the full name of the organization, the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, registration code with the Federal Tax Service, Taxpayer Identification Number and registration address.

If the car is owned by an individual entrepreneur and is used for business purposes, the full name will be indicated on the extract. IP, INN, SNILS, USRIP number, registration address.

If the owner is an individual, the extract will reflect the full name, date and place of birth, SNILS, registration address at the place of stay or residence, and passport details.

If the register does not have any information about the owner or vehicle, the entry “missing” is made in the corresponding field. Entering obviously incorrect data is not permitted.

What status can an entry in the registry have?

10. In the state register:
the “valid” status is assigned to a registry entry containing information about a vehicle registered with the state;
the “archival” status is assigned to a registry entry containing information about the removal of a vehicle from state registration, or about termination of state registration due to invalidation of registration, or about a technical error;
the status “suspended” is assigned to a registry entry containing information about the temporary termination of a vehicle’s permission to participate in road traffic.

The very first field that contains an extract from the registry (we will discuss obtaining an extract below) is the status of the record, which can take the following values:

active;
archival;
suspended.

Only a vehicle whose entry has the status “ valid ” can be operated normally.

In principle, the “archived” and “suspended” statuses also do not contain anything criminal. However, when buying a car, it makes sense to find out from the seller the reasons why such a status is established.

For example, if the seller stopped registering a car in order to retain a nice license plate, then renewing the registration of the car will not pose any special problems.

What information is contained in the state register of vehicles?

A complete list of details is given in the government decree on the procedure for maintaining the state register of vehicles, but here it is enough to say that this is almost all the information from the vehicle passport (PTS) and the vehicle registration certificate (VRC). For each re-registration operation or change of owner, its date and full information about the owner are indicated.

Each registry entry has a status - <active, <archived or <suspended. Status <active> - for registered vehicles, <archived> - for deregistered vehicles, <suspended> - indicates a temporary suspension of the vehicle’s permission to participate in road traffic.

What extracts from the register can I get?

13. Access to information contained in the state register (except for information with limited access) is provided by the operator of the state register upon request for an extract (hereinafter referred to as the request).
Depending on the composition of the requested information, as well as the subject requesting it, the extract may contain an expanded list of information about the vehicle (hereinafter referred to as the extended extract) or a shortened list of information about the vehicle (hereinafter referred to as the abbreviated extract).
The statement is issued on paper or in the form of an electronic document using the Internet information and telecommunications network, including the federal state information system “Unified Portal of State and Municipal Services (Functions)” (hereinafter referred to as the Unified Portal), the official website of the operator of the state register, as well as through a unified system of interdepartmental electronic interaction and other technical means of communication.

There are 2 options for statements:

shortened - anyone can get it;
extended - it is issued only to a limited number of people (more information about this is given below).

You can get an extract:

on paper (if you contact the traffic police in person);
in electronic form (via the Public Services portal, the traffic police website, etc.).

Format of an extract from the vehicle register

Extracts from the state register of vehicles are of two types: shortened and expanded. You can receive an extract both on paper (by contacting the traffic police in person) and in electronic form, for example, through the government services portal or the traffic police website, and departments can also exchange information through the interdepartmental electronic interaction system (SMEV).

Abbreviated statement format

According to clause 22 of the rules for maintaining the register, any person can receive an extract in an abbreviated format for any car. This statement format allows you to check the history of changes in ownership of the car upon purchase. The request can be made by VIN or body, chassis, frame or engine numbers.

The extract form is given in Appendix 2 to the rules.

There is no personal data of vehicle owners here. The set of details coincides with the function of checking the history of car registration on the State Traffic Inspectorate portal in force at the beginning of 2020. The status of each entry is also displayed here.

Extended statement format

An extended format for an extract from the state register of vehicles is provided in three cases:

If it is requested by the owner of the vehicle or his representative by proxy
The request is made by government bodies of the Russian Federation, a complete list of which is given in clause 14 of the rules.
Foreign police authorities and Interpol

An extended extract from the register in accordance with clause 15 of the rules can be issued both by the details of the car (VIN, unit numbers, license plate number) and by the owner (by full name or SNILS, name of the legal entity or number in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities).

Abbreviated extract from the register

Clause 22 of the rules for maintaining the register:

22. An abbreviated statement in the form according to Appendix No. 2 is issued based on requests from any person.
An abbreviated statement is issued upon request containing the vehicle identification number, or the identification number of the main component of the vehicle (body, frame, cab), or chassis number.

Anyone can receive an abbreviated statement about the car . To do this, he will need to know the VIN number of the car or the number of the body, frame, cab or chassis.

The extract form is given in Appendix 2 to the rules:

Appendix 2. Abridged statement

This is exactly the type of statement you can get if you want to check the car before purchasing.

The abbreviated statement does not contain information about the personal data of the car owner and other personal information.

Note. The contents of the abbreviated extract almost completely coincide with the information that can be obtained using the “Checking registration history with the traffic police” service.

The abbreviated statement additionally contains information about the environmental class of the car, as well as the status of the entry in the register.

Registry entry status

A separate issue is the status of the entry in the registry. It can be active, suspended or archived.

What does this mean:

Valid: assigned if the car is registered with the traffic police.
Suspended: established if the vehicle’s permission to travel on public roads is temporarily suspended.
Archive: assigned if the car is deregistered or the registration is canceled due to a technical error or invalidation of the entry.

The best option is when the record is assigned the status “active”. This means that the car is registered, and there should not be any special problems with subsequent registration. If the statement indicates “archived” or “suspended,” it is recommended to check with the seller for details. If he deregistered the car only in order to keep a beautiful license plate, in the future registering the vehicle with the traffic police will not be difficult.

Extended extract from the register

14. An extended extract in the form according to Appendix No. 1 is issued:
a) the owner of the vehicle in respect of whom an extended extract is requested, his legal representative or representative acting on the basis of a power of attorney;
b) courts, prosecutorial authorities, investigators, inquiries in connection with criminal, civil cases, cases of administrative offenses in their proceedings, bailiffs in connection with the exercise of their functions of executing judicial acts or acts of other bodies, as well as tax authorities, customs and other authorities and persons in cases and in the manner provided for by the legislation of the Russian Federation, or on the basis of agreements concluded with the operator of the state register to perform the functions assigned to them;
c) law enforcement agencies of foreign states and international police organizations in accordance with international treaties of the Russian Federation.

Unlike a shortened statement, an extended statement can only be obtained by the owner of the vehicle , as well as representatives of some government organizations. This is not surprising, because the extended statement contains much more information about both the car and its owners:

Appendix 1. Extended statement

To receive an extended statement, it is not necessary to indicate the vehicle’s VIN number:

15. An extended statement is generated based on one of the following information:
a) the name of the legal entity, or the main state registration number of the entry in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, or the taxpayer identification number - for the owner of the vehicle - a legal entity;
b) insurance number of an individual personal account or last name, first name, patronymic (if available) and date of birth of the owner - for the owner of the vehicle - an individual or individual entrepreneur;
c) vehicle identification number, or identification number of the main component of the vehicle (body, frame, cabin), or chassis number;
d) state registration number of the vehicle.

Subparagraph d says that an extended statement can be obtained simply by car number .

Documentation

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 27, 2019 N 1874 “On approval of the Rules for maintaining the state register of vehicles” Size: 66.277 Kb

According to Government Decree No. 1874, from January 1, 2020, the Ministry of Internal Affairs began maintaining a state register of cars.

The state register will contain the following information:

a) information about the vehicle:

details of the vehicle passport (electronic vehicle passport);
state registration number;
identification number (VIN);
brand and (or) model (commercial name);
category (subcategory) of the vehicle;
model, number, type, power and engine displacement;

Within 6 months, the Ministry of Internal Affairs must organize access to the register of citizens through a personal account on the State Services website.

Storing information about statements in the registry

33. Information about all requests received and extracts issued on their basis is stored in the state register.

In addition to information about the vehicles themselves, the register also stores information about all issued extracts. That is, if someone requested information about your car, a corresponding entry will appear in the registry.

However, even the owner of the car cannot obtain information about this. Apparently it will be kept for official purposes.

New vehicle register

Let's start with the vehicle register. Currently, on the territory of the Russian Federation there is a unified traffic police database, which contains up-to-date information about vehicle owners and the cars themselves. Only law enforcement officers have full access to it. Other citizens and organizations also have the opportunity to obtain information about the vehicle from the traffic police database on the official website of the department, but now this can only be done by VIN or body number.

Simply put, first you have to look under the hood of the car you want, and only after that you will be able to check it against the database. Formally, this procedure is enough to protect yourself from fraud in purchase and sale transactions, but legislators decided to slightly change the procedure for providing information.

Here is what is noted in this regard in the new law, which will come into force on August 4, 2021:

Article 9. State register of vehicles
clause 1. The State Register of Vehicles is a federal information resource containing information about vehicles, registration actions taken in relation to them, registration data of vehicles and other data. The form, procedure for maintaining the state register of vehicles and the list of information contained in it are established by the Government of the Russian Federation.

From the definition presented above, it follows that the new vehicle register will be similar in essence to Rosreestr, where the user receives information about the property through a special form.

In paragraph 4 of the same article it is noted:

clause 4 Access to information contained in the state register of vehicles, issuance of extracts from the state register of vehicles to interested persons and organizations (with the exception of restricted access information) is carried out in the manner established by the Government of the Russian Federation.

Unfortunately, the text of this clarifying Government Resolution at the time of publication of the review was still under development and was closed for public discussion, so there was no specific information about the operating procedure of the register. At the same time, Irina Volk, official representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, noted on February 18:

“The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia has developed a draft resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation “On the State Register of Vehicles,” which provides for the formation and maintenance of the register, the establishment of a procedure for access to the information contained in it, as well as the issuance of extracts with data from the register to interested persons and organizations.”

The cost of categorization consists of a number of factors and features, for example:

Payment of state duty or any fee is currently not required
Depending on who submits the documents, a power of attorney may be required to be drawn up and notarized, which totals about 1,500 rubles.
If you submit documents by registered mail, you will also need to pay postage costs, which amount to approximately 100-200 rubles.
