When you want to buy a used car, of course there are many things you need to consider. The vehicle ownership book (Buku Pemilik Kendaraan Bermotor or ‘BPKB’) is one of the most important documents to pay attention to, because later you will have to transfer the ownership of the car.
Ownership transfer is the process of legally replacing vehicle ownership data. Not only you need to change the ownership name in BPKB, but you also need to replace the vehicle number (Surat Tanda Nomor Kendaraan or ‘STNK’).
The new BPKB where you have transferred the car ownership will become a valid document proving your ownership. To process the transfer, there are several requirements that must be met.
