According to Shahr Bours, the Competition Council has issued a new directive banning car registration for individuals with an active license plate for vehicles under 5 years old and those who purchased a car within the last 48 months.
Extension of Strict Car Purchase Conditions
On August 18, 2025, the Competition Council extended restrictions on car registration. According to the directive, individuals who purchased a vehicle from domestic manufacturers like Iran Khodro or SAIPA in the past 48 months are not eligible to register. Additionally, those with an active license plate for a vehicle less than 5 years old are barred from registration. This measure aims to regulate the market and curb profiteering.
Exceptions and Restrictions on Transferring Purchase Rights
The directive prohibits transferring car purchase rights to third parties through proxies or invoice sales, and purchase contracts cannot be settled. However, an exception allows individuals with active license plates for vehicles over 5 years old to register. For more details, check auto industry news.
