Car ownership

[landlubber]

When a Spanish resident dies, does the ownership of his car have to be transferred into his heir's name before it can be sold ?

Helo landlubber,

Yes, for you to transfer ownership of an asset, it must be registered in your name first; in this case, by means of an inheritance process.

Thank you for the info. Do you have any idea how much this will cost for a car that's about 9 years old and worth € 4000. ?
