At MyGermanCar, we are here for you, every step of the way
We handle the registration, insurance, and compliance so you can hit the road across Europe. Fully legal, fully yours. First we obtain the documents, then we visit the registration center (DMV), we have new plates pressed, apply license stickers and deliver the new plates to your car
Our headquarters in the heart of Berlin handles everything, so you don’t have to. All the vehicles we register have prestigious "B" plates, because we are based in Berlin (e.g. B AB 1234). In Germany, Berlin (B) plates are typically considered the most desireable, followed Munich (M) & Stuttgart (S). Smaller cities have two or three letters e.g. CUX for Cuxhaven
In Germany, car ownership and vehicle registration are legally separate roles
The Halter is the registered keeper — their name appears on the vehicle registration document and they are responsible for insurance, taxes, inspections, and any traffic fines. A Halter must have a valid German address.
The Eigentümer is the true legal owner of the car — this can be an individual or a company. However, their name does not appear on the registration document, and German law recognizes ownership through sales contracts, invoices, or other proof of purchase.
This separation allows services like MyGermanCar to register a car (as Halter) on behalf of non-resident owners, while the customer retains full legal ownership.
