An individual/firm is expected to have a dealer licence before he can engage in buying and selling of cars.
It is also important for unregistered vehicles to carry dealer number plates when plying the roads.
The law enforcement agents have been placed on high alert to stop the trend of driving unregistered tokunbo vehicles on the main road without an identification tag – dealer number plate.
REQUIREMENTS FOR PROCESSING DEALER LICENCE
The following are required to process a dealer licence:
Photocopy of CAC certificate showing your company name.
Photocopy of a valid identity card issued by the government such as Driver’s licence, International passport, Voter’s card or National ID card.
Two letter-headed papers of the company
Two passport photographs of the car dealer.
WHAT WILL YOU GET?
1) A dealer certificate/licence valid for a year (January to December). Renewable annually.
2) Three pairs of dealer number plates that can be used on three cars.
I am interested for the dealer licence can I register with a business name. I.e enterprises note not limited. And secondly I base in Delta state how long will it take for the licence to come out? The registration is annually how much will it cost to renew it yearly?
If your business is based in Delta state then you have to process an Auto Dealer Licence there.
For now, Car Papers can only assist you in getting Lagos and Ogun States Auto Dealer Licence.
You may have to approach the Vehicle Administration Agency in Delta State for more information.
Thanks for your comments.
