4. Or sign the back of the VRC and post it Requerido por ley Vendedor y comprador

   As the paper alternative, seller and buyer complete and sign the change of ownership section on the reverse of the Vehicle Registration Certificate (VRC). It is the seller's responsibility to send the VRC to the Department of Transport (Shannon, Co. Clare) for updating. The Department then posts a new VRC to the new owner.
