5- For special areas, based on the actual situation of the number of registered vehicles, the nature of the area, and geographical distance, the Director of the Provincial Police Department agrees with the Traffic Police Department to decide on vehicle registration as follows:
+ For communes with less than 150 newly registered motorbikes per year, the commune-level police will directly register the vehicles or assign the district, town, city police or commune-level police that have been assigned to register vehicles to organize vehicle registration in clusters;
+ For communes with a number of vehicles exceeding the registration capacity of the commune-level police, in addition to the commune-level police directly registering vehicles, the district, town, city police, and adjacent commune-level police that have been assigned to register vehicles can be assigned to support the organization of vehicle registration in clusters for domestic organizations and individuals with headquarters and residence in the area.
Thus, according to Circular 24/2023/TT-BCA, citizens can register vehicles at their temporary residence from August 15, 2023.
For example, if you have a household registration in Hanoi but live and work in Ho Chi Minh City, you need to register for temporary residence in Ho Chi Minh City. Then, you can buy a car and register it right in Ho Chi Minh City.
