Selling your car
What paperwork you need to sell your car
To sell your car to Qualis Cars you need the original title, the green registration card (cédula verde), the owner’s ID and the keys; if you have them, add the spare key, a valid roadworthiness certificate (VTV), the latest service record and the manuals. We order the ownership report, the traffic-fines report and the vehicle-tax clearance ourselves, and you sign the transfer form (formulario 08) at our location, before our notary, when you get paid.

What we take care of
- Ownership report: who the owner is and whether the car has liens or seizures.
- Traffic-fines report (SUATS) and vehicle-tax clearance.
- Police verification (formulario 12): if you do not have it, we do it and its cost is deducted from the price.

If something is missing
It does not stop the sale. A missing VTV, police verification, parts etching, spare key, manuals, jack or spare tyre is deducted from the price. Unpaid vehicle tax or fines are deducted or held back until you bring the clearance or proof of payment.
Leaving the car on consignment takes the same paperwork; you also sign the sales mandate. How consignment works
Frequently asked questions

Do I need to order the ownership report?
No. Once we pay you the deposit, we order the ownership report, the traffic-fines report and the vehicle-tax clearance ourselves.
Can I sell the car without a VTV?
Yes. It is deducted from the price.
Can I sell with unpaid fines or vehicle tax?
Yes. The debt is deducted from the price or held back until you bring the clearance.
