If you are moving to another state or selling your car to someone, you need to transfer the vehicle registration. This updates the registration to the new state if you relocate, or to the new owner if you sell the car. Since each state's transport department has its own rules, registration certificate (RC) transfer fees, requirements and timelines can differ. So how exactly do you transfer your RC to a new regional transport office (RTO) and what are the documents and fees required in the process? We answer all your questions here.
