Registration of a vehicle is one of the most major tasks undertaken by the RTO; here is the process that you would have to follow to get it done in Gujarat:

• Step 1: You will have to get Form 20, fill it and submit it to the authorized executive.
• Step 2: Submit the required documents with the fees.
• Step 3: The motor vehicle will be inspected, and if all of your papers are right, the registration will be allocated.
• Step 4: The vehicle registration information will be informed via SMS or email.

Many automobile owners prefer their personal registration number over the computer-generated registration number. When a new registration number series is opened in an RTO, allocation is done through an auction.

Registration numbers that have not been assigned to anyone are sold for a price following the auction. The fee for two-wheelers is Rs.1,000, and the fee for four-wheelers is Rs.5,000.
