Trin for trin

1. Check whether the car can be transferred online Påkrævet ved lov

   Vehicles with a prohibition notation (keelumärge), a registered pledge or joint ownership can only be transferred at a Transpordiamet service bureau. A co-owned car cannot be transferred without the other co-owner's written or digitally signed consent.

2. Start the ownership change in the e-service Påkrævet ved lov

   Log in to the Transpordiamet e-service (eteenindus.mnt.ee) with ID card, Mobile-ID, Smart-ID or an EU eID, open 'Toimingud sõidukitega', select the car and press 'OMANIKUVAHETUS'. Enter the buyer's personal identification code (or registry code for a company), check the name shown, and choose who pays the state fee.

3. Choose 'secure' or 'regular' transfer and sign digitally Påkrævet ved lov Sælger og køber

   In the secure transfer (turvaline omanikuvahetus) the sales contract is concluded in the e-service with the price, and the car is re-registered only once both parties confirm the car and money have been handed over. The regular transfer is for when the contract was signed outside the e-service. In both cases both parties sign digitally.

4. Pay the state fee Påkrævet ved lov Sælger og køber

   The state fee for registering a sale in the e-service is 55 euros, 20% cheaper than at a service bureau; either the seller or the buyer can pay it, as chosen when starting. Since 1 January 2025 a registration fee (registreerimistasu) is also due on the first change of ownership of a passenger car or vehicle up to 3,500 kg if it has not been paid before; it is paid by the person entering the vehicle in the register.

5. Buyer confirms within 5 days Påkrævet ved lov Køber

   The buyer logs in, reviews the vehicle and signs the contract or confirmation digitally. A started transfer must be completed within 5 days or it is cancelled. If the seller has confirmed but the buyer does not, the car is marked as transferred and temporarily deleted from the register after 5 working days, and may not be driven until the transfer is completed.

6. If the buyer does not register, file a notification of transfer Anbefalet

   The registered owner may notify Transpordiamet that the vehicle has been transferred, attaching a document proving the transfer (e.g. sales contract). The new owner must register within five working days; until then the registered owner is held responsible for fines such as parking penalties.
