Vehicle Registration Services

All privately-owned vehicles (POVs) must both pass inspection and be registered in Germany. The Vehicle Registration Office is separate from the Vehicle Inspection Office. When you first arrive at USAG Bavaria, view this In-Processing Flow Chart.

Vehicles brought from the United States, or purchased locally, must be registered with USAREUR. All shipped vehicles and used vehicles purchased in Germany must pass a safety inspection before they can be registered. Personnel leaving (ETS or PCS) or individuals who have lost logistical support must turn in their plates to vehicle registration (not MP Station) prior to leaving the Bavaria community.

Appointments must be scheduled using the Vehicle Registration Appointment Scheduler (right). If questions or clarification is needed, please email the office at usarmy.bavaria.id-europe.mbx.vehicle-registration@army.mil.
