Validity of NOC

A No Objection Certificate is valid for a maximum of 6 (six) months. Once the certificate is obtained, the vehicle has to be re-registered in the new jurisdiction RTO within those 6 months. If it is not done within that time, the document becomes invalid and a fresh application has to be made. It is the same with the buyer as in they have to obtain a NOC from the RTO in their jurisdiction and register the vehicle under the same before the 6 months are over.

A No Objection Certificate (NOC) remains valid for a period of 6 months. After the expiration of the NOC, you won't be able to use the document for re-registration of the vehicle at the new RTO. Also, it must be noted that NOC from the RTO is not only required when you need to transfer the registration of the vehicle from one RTO to another but also when a new owner is required to register the car at the RTO near his home. In fact, things are a bit complicated with interstate vehicle transfers. Hence, it pays to obtain NOC from RTO before you sell the vehicle to someone who plans to transfer the ownership in a different state.

Documents for Vehicle Re-Registration (Interstate Transfer)

Following are the documents required for re-registration:

• Original RC from another state
• Form 20
• NOC from previous RTO
• Form 27
• Form 33
• Attested copy of address proof
• Attested copy of the valid driving license of car owner
• Attested copy of PUC Certificate
• PAN Card, Form 60, or Form 61
• Passport-size photos of the applicant
• Lending bank NOC if the vehicle is under a loan

After the submission of the above documents, the new registration number is issued in a few weeks. Also, inform the insurance company of the re-registation to get the policy document updated.
