Procedure descriptions

Apply for vehicle registration information (keeper information) as an authorised person

If you require information about certain stored vehicle and owner data, you can obtain simple vehicle register information. You can apply for vehicle register information if you need it to assert, secure, enforce, satisfy or defend legal claims in connection with participation in road traffic. Vehicle registration information can also be requested if there is a legitimate interest in bringing a private prosecution for offences committed in road traffic. If necessary, evidence must be provided for this.

As part of an extended vehicle register information in special cases, you will receive information on further vehicle data and owner data. Special reasons for this must be substantiated with evidence.

A loss event for which you require vehicle registration information can be caused by active or passive Participation in road traffic as a perpetrator, damaging party, victim, injured party and so on. An indirect connection with participation in road traffic is sufficient. However, the participation must have a connection to the road traffic incident. This is particularly the case if the motor vehicle is in use. However, participation in road traffic may also be present if the motor vehicle is parked. The use of the motor vehicle does not necessarily have to take place on public roads. It is sufficient if the vehicle is parked in a private car park or garage and the vehicle causes damage there, for example, or suffers damage itself, or the rights of others are infringed by the use of the vehicle, such as ownership or possession of the property.
