Transferring your vehicle registration |
|
If you have obtained a different vehicle and currently have valid Alberta licence plates in your name, you may transfer them to the new vehicle.
You can come to One Stop Licence Shop in person, to transfer your vehicle plates and registration. You will need to bring acceptable identification, proof of ownership and proof of insurance (your pink slip or insurance policy) for the vehicle you wish to transfer.
If you are unable to attend in person, fully complete the letter of authorization for the person who is requesting the transfer on our behalf.
That person will need to produce the letter of authorization, acceptable identification, and proof of ownership and insurance for the vehicle that you wish to transfer.
All outstanding fines must be paid to allow access to the Motor Vehicle database. Fines can be paid at One Stop Licence Shop---saving you time of having to go to two separate locations.
