Registering a new trailer in the vehicle register

Once you have purchased a trailer, there are a few administrative formalities to complete.

When you buy from us you will receive:

Invoice
COC sheet (Certificate of Conformity)
Green card (proof of third party insurance) - which we can arrange for you (for trailers up to 750 kg for approximately 120 CZK) or you can arrange it yourself.
You will also get a temporary transport mark. The validity of this tag is 10 working days, during which time you must register the trailer with any transport authority. To register your vehicle, take the documents listed above, together with your identity card (ID card or, in the case of a legal entity, an extract from the commercial register). You do not need to bring the trailer itself! At the office, fill in the Vehicle Registration Form (available in the waiting room).

This will give you a permanent registration plate (number plate), a small registration certificate and a registration sticker - no MOT or registration test is required for a newly purchased trailer! Until 31.12.2023 you will still receive a large technical licence, but from 1.1.2024 the small technical licence will fully replace the large technical licence and will contain more information. The full technical specifications of the vehicle, which are now on the back of the large technical licence, will be available online in the Department for Transport's app.

All our trailers and related information are recorded in the Ministry of Transport's Central Information System (called CIS) and registering them with any transport authority in the country is very easy.
