A vehicle registration document typically contains detailed information about the vehicle and its registered owner. Specifically, this document includes:
- Registration number of the vehicle
- Personal details of the registered owner such as name and address
- Vehicle information including make, type, commercial name, vehicle identification number (VIN), fuel type, cylinder capacity, power, weight specifications, color, and seating capacity
- Dates relevant to the vehicle like the date of first authorization for use on public roads, date of ascription, and first registration date
- Other technical and regulatory details such as type approval number, environmental category, maximum authorized mass, and maximum towing weights for trailers
- The document often comes with a unique registration code used for ownership transfers, suspensions, scrapping, or export purposes.
There are different formats and versions of the registration document (e.g., paper forms used before 2014 and a credit card-sized registration card introduced afterward), but the essential information remains consistent across these formats.
