Buying and selling a car in Georgia has become significantly easier and faster. The Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) has launched a digital service for remote re-registration of vehicles — now the procedure can be completed online through the mobile application of the Service Agency or on the website sa.gov.ge. The new service was presented this week by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Nino Epremashvili.

From the moment the buyer enters the seller's data (be it the seller, donor, or owner), the buyer receives a digital visa of both parties in the service center. The buyer needs to collect a package of documents, visit the agency, undergo a physical vehicle inspection, sign a contract, pay the state fee, and receive the registration certificate and license plates (20 years for plates, 80 years for the number, and 100 years for the technical passport).

It is expected that the procedure will be fully available online in the near future.
