Perform a final deregistration for your vehicle by delivering it free-of-charge for recycling to an official take-back point authorised by Finnish Car Recycling Ltd.
The vehicle will be received at the take-back point, and you will receive a certificate of destruction. The take-back point will ensure the deregistration of your vehicle.
Passenger cars and vans must always be delivered to an official take-back point for scrapping so that they can be deregistered.
Vehicles in other vehicle categories may also be scrapped elsewhere. If you have the vehicle scrapped somewhere other than an official take-back point, you must personally ensure the deregistration of the vehicle. The most convenient way to do it is in Traficom's e-services:
- Sign in to My e-services
- Select the menu Vehicles and taxation
- Select the service Report the scrapping of a vehicle
If you are unable to use e-services, you can also submit a PDF form Report on destruction of vehicle (B144) to the Traficom Registry office (External link). The report must be accompanied by a certificate issued by the party in charge of scrapping the vehicle or another reliable report on how the vehicle was scrapped.
