Register a car in Essen: Kfz registration without an appointment
Want to register a car in Essen but can't get an appointment at the registration office? As an authorised registration service we handle the car registration online for all of Essen – you start right away, and the plates come by post.
Register a car in Essen – without an appointment
Whether a new or a used car: with us you don't need an appointment at the Essen registration office to register it. As a KBA-certified registration service we register your vehicle online – you upload the documents by photo, we do the rest.
Which documents do I need to register?
For the car registration in Essen you need: the eVB number from your insurer, the vehicle document (registration certificate Part II) or, for new cars, the CoC papers, your ID card and a SEPA mandate for the vehicle tax. If anything is missing, we tell you in advance exactly what's needed.
Essen registration office: address & contact
The Essen registration office (Straßenverkehrsamt) is at Altendorfer Straße 101, 45143 Essen, in the Westviertel district (phone 0201 883-3999) – today at a single central location. Appointments there are often booked out for weeks – with us you bypass that entirely and register your car without a trip to the office.
What does registration in Essen cost?
The prices are transparent and listed separately: our service fee from €79.90, plus the official fee of the city of Essen, the plates and shipping. You see every item before payment – no hidden costs and clearly cheaper than many providers.
i-Kfz yourself or registration by power of attorney?
You can in theory do the online registration (i-Kfz) yourself – but it often fails with old papers or used cars that lack the required security codes. Our registration by power of attorney, on the other hand, covers every case: we act as an authorised major client, no matter how old the vehicle papers are.
How we register your car in Essen
You upload the eVB, vehicle papers and ID by photo, sign the power of attorney and photograph it with your ID. We register your vehicle at the Essen registration office and send you the Essen plates (E) by post – no appointment, no queue.
