How to sale a car in Diya? — 22% of sellers learned this in practice during July
Reregistration of motor vehicles in Diya can be considered a relatively new service, because it became available to Ukrainians from December 2023. The seller and the buyer do not have to go to the service center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in order to submit the original documents and get a new vehicle registration certificate and number plates there. Also included in the optional category is the service of an expert inspection of cars — you can use it when reselling a car at your own request, but not necessarily, as it was before.
Based on the open data of the GSC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, specialists of the Institute of Car Market Research studied the statistics of the use of the car sales service in Diya, ordering new license plates during July 2024 (in fact, most of the data will be from the beginning of the introduction of the service), and are ready to share the results of this research.
With the help of Diya, you can reissue a car, motorcycle or moped. Provided that this is the first (and only) sale of any of the mentioned TK in the year, because otherwise there is an obligation to pay tax on this transaction, which is not yet administered in Diya, therefore, for the second and subsequent sales, you should contact the TSC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. These three categories are included hereafter in all numerical data.
In July, a total of 108,600 purchase and sale agreements were concluded for the specified types of vehicles. Including those framed in Diya.
The remote service was used 24 thousand times, which is 21.1% of the total number of all purchase and sale agreements concluded in July 2024.
The overall popularity of this service in the first quarter decreased every month: in January, the share of sales processed using Diya was 12.5% (recall that only the three categories that can be re-processed remotely are taken into account), in February it was 11.8%, in March — 10.6%. Then, in April, the share of those willing to "rewrite" cars without visiting the Ministry of Internal Affairs increased to 22.9%, after which this record was broken by a new value in May: 24.5%. The current figure of 21.1% is quite high, although slightly lower than during the "rewrite boom", but higher than when the service started.
Together with the share, the number of vehicles sold through Diya increased (compared to the first quarter of this year). We will remind that in total last month 24 thousand cars, mopeds and motorcycles were sold remotely.

The buyer, who registers a car in Diya, has the option of leaving the license plates of the previous owner (except for those that belong to the paid category, with separate combinations of numbers — 1234, 7777, etc.), or order new plates, for which a digital combination is also possible to select (selection service is paid additionally).
Last month, new license plates with the DI index, which will be delivered to the specified "Ukrposhta" branch, were ordered 2.4 thousand times ( 10.1% of users). Since that date, 1,942 sets have been sent to new car owners, 451 to motorcycle buyers, and another 31 to mopeds.
Passenger cars were reissued most often in Diya — 95.3%. Motorcycles received a share of 4.1%, the least number of remotely concluded purchase and sale agreements was for mopeds, only 0.2%.
The general picture in terms of age, makes and models of motor vehicles, the sale of which was registered in Diya, repeats the picture of the domestic market, only on a slightly reduced scale.
In total, since the launch of the service for remote re-registration of cars, mopeds and motorcycles in Diya, 149,800 remote re-registrations for such vehicles have taken place.
Since in April-July, the statistics of remote re-registrations (and the car market in general) were influenced by some atypical external factors, to obtain "clean" statistics, we will probably have to wait another month or several, when the wave of re-registrations of "extra" cars subsides. At the same time, it is not excluded that soon we will start to collect and process another mass of information — about customs clearance in Diya, the preparation for the implementation of which, according to information from our sources in the Parliament, is being conducted quite actively.
