Apply for transfer of tax liability
If a vehicle has been registered with both an owner and a holder in the Transport Register, it is the holder who is liable to pay the tax. As the first owner of the vehicle, you can submit an application to have the tax liability transferred to you. This form cannot be used for changing vehicle registration data, e.g. a change of ownership.
Use the electronic service (only companies/organisations) if
- you wish to transfer the tax liability for a vehicle you own from its holder to yourself.
- you wish to terminate an agreement on transferring tax liability.
You can submit an application if you have been authorised to represent your company or have been granted the mandate for “Handling vehicle tax-related matters”.
