- Registration certificate part I or vehicle registration document
- License plates - After de-stamping, the license plates will be returned or can be disposed of here.
- If the vehicle is not being scrapped: Declaration by the vehicle owner that the vehicle is not to be disposed of as waste. Please note in the case of powers of attorney - use our sample deregistration power of attorney.
