Documents to sell a car in Luxembourg

Before looking for a buyer

Prepare the information that proves the vehicle identity and its real condition. It makes the valuation more defensible.

• Registration certificate
• Current mileage and VIN if available
• Latest roadworthiness check or SNCT proof
• Service book, invoices and recent repairs
• Clear photos of the exterior, interior and odometer

At the point of sale

The sale contract or invoice should identify the parties, vehicle, price and mileage at the time of the transaction.

• Sale contract signed by seller and buyer
• Identity copy or identity reference where relevant
• Payment proof or bank trail
• Date and time of key handover

After the sale

For a Luxembourg-registered vehicle, the sale triggers an SNCA step. Plan it before handing over the file.
