Milei’s DNU: new requirements to circulate and what happens with the VTV

President Javier Milei announced last Wednesday the mega DNU (Decree of Necessity and Urgency) that he signed to deregulate the economy, modifying more than 300 laws, “will unblock this oppressive legal scaffolding that destroyed” the country, and will allow Argentina “to grow.” One of the measures refers to changes in the mandatory documentation to circulate by car in the national territory. What are the modifications to be able to circulate? Article 361 of the DNU establishes that the identity card, the driver’s license and the proof of payment of the license plate are the only documents required to circulate with the vehicle, and the provincial or municipal authorities may not establish other requirements for its legitimate use.” It will be mandatory to show these documents to the competent authority, but they cannot be withheld without a report of theft or theft of the vehicle or an order from a judicial authority,” the document explains. In this sense, the current Vehicle Technical Verification or Mandatory Technical Review and proof of the insurance policy are no longer mandatory to circulate. It also states in a paragraph that “the immediate registration of ownership of motor vehicles or their transfers may not be restricted or limited by administrative regulations unrelated to the fees of the Registry. The existence of debts in a regular situation for fines or patents may not prevent the registration or transfer of motor vehicles in the Registry.” This would allow you to avoid paying the debt for fines and licenses before selling or transferring a car. What was not allowed before without paying with that amount owed.
