Print out the deed of transfer for you and the buyer for carrying out the sale
Print out pre-filled deeds of transfer from My e-Services.
Submit a notification of transfer for a vehicle in My e-Services once you have sold your vehicle. By submitting a notification of transfer, you ensure that you do not need to pay vehicle tax or other fees after the sale.
To submit a notification of transfer, you will need the buyer’s personal identity code or business ID. The buyer will also benefit from the notification of transfer. When it has been filed, the buyer will not need a digital certificate or the notification part of the registration certificate to notify a change of ownership. The buyer can take care of the matter either in My e-Services or at an inspection station that offers registration services.
When can you submit a notification of transfer electronically?
You are the owner or holder of the vehicle, and you are at least 15 years old.
The new owner or holder of the vehicle has a Finnish personal identity code or a valid business ID.
