Types of Vehicle Registration in Karnataka

The M.V Act, 1988 strictly prohibits anyone from driving a vehicle on the roads of Karnataka or elsewhere in India without registering it with the concerned RTOs. Therefore, it is pertinent for the every vehicle owner in Karnataka to register his/her car or bike with RTO Karnataka. The registration process is of two types-

Permanent Registration: As per the law of Motor Vehicles Act, every vehicle plying on the roads has to register with regional transport offices. This process is called Permanent Registration. Under this, a vehicle gets registered for 15 years and the owner is given with RTO Karnataka registration numbers. Whenever the tenure ends, it is renewed for the further years. The local RTOs requires certain documents to update Karnataka RTO Vehicle Information, that need to be furnished on time.

Temporary Registration: Under this, the vehicle owner is given with a temporary vehicle registration number by the dealer at the time of purchasing. However, the vehicle has to be registered with RTO Karnataka within 30 days from issuing a temporary RC, by applying for a permanent registration number.

Without registering a vehicle with RTO Karnataka, one can’t drive it on the roads. Vehicle registration process in Karnataka is simple.
