Registration of vehicle co-owner

Registration of vehicle co-owner

It is possible to register more than one owner of a vehicle. If a co-owner is added or removed it must be reported.

Role and responsibilities of a co-owner

A co-owner and a primary owner have the same rights and responsibilities. Ownership shares are not registered separately. Public charges are issued to the primary owner.

The requirements for registering a co-owner are that

  • Vehicle taxes and any other outstanding charges have been paid

  • The individuals are at least 18 years old

The process

  1. The owner fills out the notification and pays for the registration.

  2. The co-owner confirms and signs the notification electronically.

  3. The co-owner registration is updated in the vehicle register.

Cost

A co-owner registration or removal costs 1.222 ISK which the owner pays upon registration.

Change in ownership order

To change the order of owners, a special paper form must be submitted to the Icelandic Transport Authority. This cannot be done electronically.
