Deregister your vehicle

We file the deregistration with your registration office and send you the confirmation as a PDF. You only pay once it has worked.

Step 1 of 32 steps to go

Your vehicle

Two details. We recognise your registration office from the plate itself.

No account. No bank details. No upsell.

§ 1

Why you can safely fill this in

Three things we settled before you enter anything.

01

Check first, pay after

If your registration office requires a login to the municipal service portal, we tell you here in the form. You pay nothing in that case.

02

One amount, nothing on top

Your registration office’s fee is included. No subscription, no upsell, no handling fee in the small print.

03

As little data as possible

No account, no password, no bank details, no copy of your ID. We do not ask for your name: the registration office retrieves the keeper data from the register itself.

§ 2

What happens after you send it

So you know what you are waiting for.

Questions that come up while filling in

What if I make a typing mistake?

You can change any entry here in the form as long as you have not ordered. We check the length of the codes and the shape of the plate while you type.

Do I really have to reveal the security codes?

Yes. Without the three codes a vehicle cannot be deregistered through the online route; the vehicle registration regulation requires it. We show you where each code is.

What if a code is no longer readable?

Then the online route is closed for that vehicle, for us too. In that case only a visit to the registration office helps. You pay us nothing for that.

Can I deregister the vehicle myself?

Yes. Anyone with an activated online ID function and a card reader or a suitable phone can do it through i-Kfz and then only pays the office fee. We are here for everyone for whom that does not work.
