Change of address

You have one month from your change of residence to update the address on the registration certificate. After that, you risk a fine at a roadside check. The procedure is quick when it is a simple address change with no change of owner.

In many cases a sticker to affix to the existing carte grise is sent, or an update is issued under the rules in force and the number of previous address changes. After several address changes, a complete new certificate may be required. Always keep the official document you receive with your carte grise.

Prepare ID, proof of the new address less than 6 months old, the current carte grise, and the application / mandate Cerfa forms if you use a professional. An up-to-date licence and insurance help complete the file. If you are hosted by someone else, attach their attestation and documents.

A change of address usually attracts a limited administrative fee (not the regional fiscal-horsepower scale of a change of ownership), plus any service fee if an accredited professional assists you. The exact amount is shown before payment in the online flow.

The address change updates the residence shown on the certificate. That can affect tax calculations on a future paid procedure (for example a later change of ownership), because the regional tax depends on your region. For the address change alone, you do not have to “re-register” the vehicle from scratch.
