Vende tu auto en Israel

Paso a paso

1. Check the car for pledges and liens Recomendado Comprador

   Before paying, the buyer should check the Registrar of Pledges at the Ministry of Justice. Not every lien shows up in the Ministry of Transport system, and the post office may let a transfer go through even when there is one. Checking is the buyer's responsibility.

   Look up the licence plate number in the Israel Police service to see whether the vehicle has been reported stolen.

3. Verify the seller and inspect the car Recomendado Comprador

   Make sure the seller is the registered owner. The name and ID number on the vehicle licence must match their identity card, or the seller must show a power of attorney. Have an independent garage you choose inspect the car and record the chassis and engine numbers. Do not buy if they differ from the bill of sale (shtar mecher).

4. Register the ownership transfer within 15 days Requerido por ley Vendedor y comprador

   Online in the gov.il Personal Area: both parties must be Israeli citizens with a gov.il account, the car must have one owner and valid registration, and both must be logged in at the same time. The seller starts the process and enters the buyer's ID number. The buyer confirms and pays the fee by credit card. At a post office branch linked to the Licensing Bureau: show the current vehicle licence and both identity cards. If there is no lien or attachment, the change is registered on the spot.

   Private car: NIS 235 in the Personal Area or NIS 257 at the post office (fees in force from 1 April 2026). Motorcycle: NIS 70 / NIS 87.

5. Go to a Licensing Bureau for special cases Requerido por ley Vendedor y comprador

   Some transfers can only be done in person at a Licensing Bureau. Examples: either party is not an Israeli citizen, the car is inherited, the owner is a minor or a tourist, the transfer follows a court ruling, or the car has not passed its annual test.

6. Seller: complete the transfer before handing over the car Recomendado

   The duty to register the change of ownership falls on the seller. Until the transfer is done, tickets, fines and attachments keep going to the registered owner. Do not give the vehicle licence to the buyer and rely on them to do it. Usually the buyer pays the transfer fee, but the two parties can agree otherwise.

Mantente seguro cuando los compradores se pongan en contacto contigo

• Be careful with a seller who has owned the car for only days or weeks, who gives only a mobile number, or who will only deal by phone. If in doubt, ask the seller to come with you to the Licensing Bureau. Refusal can be a warning sign.
• If the bill of sale does not match the seller's vehicle licence, the licence may be fake.
• Post office staff do not check or compare vehicle data. Confirm restrictions yourself with the Licensing Bureau and the Registrar of Pledges.
• If the car is linked to a disabled parking permit, the reduced licence fee must be cancelled and the difference paid before the sale.
