How to apply for registration of a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle, known as a "Motorcycle on request"

The administrative authorisation may stipulate, for each holder, the number of vehicles that may be put into service.

Two- or three-wheeled motor vehicles known as "motorcycles on request" must have a self-adhesive sticker affixed. This sticker is issued by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office.

It states the registration number.

It must be affixed to the vehicle in such a way as to be visible and to enable it to be checked by the competent authorities.

Two- or three-wheeled motor vehicles known as "motorcycles on request" must be proven to be less than four years old from the date of first entry into service.

An annual maintenance certificate must be given to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office before the vehicle is put into service and then annually thereafter.

All registrations are recorded in a register of registrations, leading to the issue of a certificate and a registration plate (rear) with sticker. Although a front plate can still be issued on request.

The registration plates must be permanently fixed to the vehicle in the spaces provided for this purpose.

A sticker stating the registration number is also issued by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office. It must be affixed to the vehicle and visible for inspection by any relevant authority.

This certificate and registration plate indicate the number assigned to the vehicle as well as the validity period of the registration, which will be until 31 December of the current year, or 31 December of the following year if the vehicle is registered between 1 October and 31 December.

Registration can be renewed for another year during the annual renewal period. See the following factsheet for details: How to renew your annual car sticker. Should you fail to renew your anual car sticker or validate the periodic technical inspection by the required deadlines, the vehicle will be deregistered in accordance with the conditions established by ministerial decree. The vehicle is no longer authorised to drive on the roads. 

Finally, a professional licence is required to drive a "motorcycle on request" vehicle in a professional capacity. Details of the procedures for obtaining licences can be found in the factsheet: How to request a professional licence.

There is a fee associated with this procedure in accordance with the current applicable rates.

The application to register must be sent to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office using the appropriate form, duly completed and signed on the original by the owner of the vehicle.
