Vehicles that are not registered require an operating license to be issued with an official license plate or an insurance license plate.

If the operating permit is no longer available, a replacement certificate must be requested from the manufacturer.

For the issue of the replacement document, the manufacturer requires a clearance certificate from the licensing authority. This clearance certificate enables the manufacturer or the officially recognized expert to issue a replacement operating permit. It is certified that no vehicle defects are known or that the operating license has not been withdrawn by the licensing authority.

Important notes

Prerequisites

The location of the vehicle is Hamburg. If the vehicle was purchased outside of Hamburg, then the clearance certificate must be applied for from the local licensing authority

Documents required

  • Proof of ownership (invoice or sales contract)
  • written, informal declaration of loss

Please note

If the manufacturer no longer exists, then an expert report in accordance with Section 21 of the Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (building council report) is required. With this report, the operating permit is issued by the State Transport Authority.

An appointment with the Landesbetrieb Verkehr is required for processing.
