Source: Zuständigkeitsfinder Schleswig-Holstein (Linie6Plus)

Service Description

Would you like to use your deregistered vehicle on the road again? Then you can re-register it with the registration authority.

If you want to use your deregistered vehicle on public roads again, you must first re-register it.

This is a re-registration to the same owner if you are the person who was previously registered as the owner of the vehicle.

If there has been a change of keeper, this is referred to as re-registration to a different keeper.

You can apply for this in person at the registration authority responsible for you and, in many regions, also online or appoint a representative to do so. If your vehicle has been out of service for more than 7 years, you cannot register the vehicle online.

Under certain conditions, you can also apply for a different license plate.

After around 7 years, the vehicle and owner data will be deleted from the Central Vehicle Register. If you require a certificate of conformity, data confirmation or certificate of individual vehicle approval for your vehicle for re-registration, you must submit a corresponding certificate from a recognized specialist body.


Process flow

You can also apply for re-registration via the website of the responsible registration authority if you were the last owner of the vehicle when it was deregistered and the same registration authority is still responsible for you.

The requirements for this are also

  • an identity card with electronic proof of identity function
  • a new registration certificate part I (vehicle registration document)
  • a license plate reservation (for a maximum of one year) made at the time of deregistration (decommissioning)

Note: The new registration certificate part I (the vehicle registration document) has a concealed, but releasable security code on it, which can be recognized by a silver sticker.
