Motor Vehicle Transfer Requirements
Summary
In Trinidad and Tobago, transferring a motor vehicle requires registration with the Licensing Authority. A deed of gift alone is not enough for legal transfer. Relevant case laws, such as Ramsingh v Ramnarace, emphasize the necessity of proper registration. The Motor Vehicles and Road Traffic Act mandates registration for legal recognition. An unregistered deed does not transfer an equitable interest. For legal submissions, consult local law libraries or legal databases for case law access.Full Conversation
