Sell a car fast in Dubai can be a swift and hassle-free process if you know the right steps to take. Whether you’re upgrading to a new vehicle or simply need to liquidate an asset quickly, this guide will help you navigate the process efficiently. Here’s how to sell your car fast in Dubai:
To sell or buy cars, first you need to collect all the documents for the cars.
– Vehicle registration card (Mulkia – an official document issued by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai): This is the most important document that the seller must have.
– Emirates ID card: Both parties, the seller and the buyer, must present an Emirates ID card, it is also now possible to sell or buy with passports of other countries, but you are allowed to drive in Dubai only for the first three months with a tourist visa.
Passport and visa: copies of the seller’s and buyer’s passports, as well as a residence visa in the UAE.
– Insurance certificate: Valid insurance certificate for the vehicle. It is worth noting that when buying a car, the buyer will have to make a new car insurance with personal data.
I hasten to inform you that not all insurance companies are ready to insure your car 100% if the car is more than five years old. On average, the price of insurance costs from 790-1200 dirhams. It is also worth asking for additional services from an insurance company, for example, free evacuation of cars in cases of technical malfunctions or accidents.
The stages of vehicle transfer are quite simple.
1. The seller must carry out a technical inspection at the specified address: Tasjeel Al Barsha https://g.co/kgs/g2W31j
Before you get to the inspection, you will pass through the window, where you need to be informed in advance that you plan to sell the car, so the cost will be 370 dirhams. Otherwise, we can pay 170 for updating those passports. The technical inspection takes no more than 20 minutes, if you book in advance, the cost will not exceed 270 dirhams.
2. Go to the waiting room and get a certificate of the condition of the car by number. If the car has no technical problems, proceed to the next stage of the sale or you have three days to put the car in order and get a free re-diagnosis.
3. As soon as you receive the certificate from the MOUTH, you can immediately re-register the car with the buyer in the same hall, and in this case, both should not have debts with fines. It is necessary to pay off all debts with fines; this is done through the Dubai Police phone application.
. The next step is to get a number, you will immediately be provided with a contract of sale, where both participants will sign a contract, and for this, you will have to pay an additional 850 dirhams.
And so let’s sum up the results:
– Technical inspection – 370 dirhams
– Purchase and sale contract 850
– New car insurance 790 dirhams
– Close all fines
– Printing of a new product (technical passport of the product) – 370
First impressions matter. Make sure your car is in perfect condition before you put it up for sale, check for oil loss and excess noise, and make sure all gaps are even and there are no noticeable scratches. After all, all of these factors can greatly affect the value of the car.
Dry cleaning: a thorough wash and cleaning of the interior can be essential, especially before taking photos and videos, since all your buyers will be evaluating the car from a distance initially.
Maintenance: perform any minor repairs and ensure the car is in good technical condition.
Documentation: gather all the necessary documents, including the car registration, service history and any warranties, check your VIN number and the full history of the car’s owners, as well as major repairs. Clients usually ask questions about the VIN number, how many owners there were, whether the car was used for rent, whether it is possible to check the condition of the engine, the condition of the air conditioner, the gaps on the car, the number of painted parts, they even come with devices to check the amount of paint applied.
Photos and videos: Of course, you need high-quality photos and videos in a realistic form, here, of course, I can help you. I have prepared a special package specifically for those who want to quickly sell photos. The speech is about quick photography from all angles of all parts and within d your photos will be ready. And also due to the accumulated experience, I know in advance what needs to be paid more attention to, since buyers have long understood how to buy and sell cars correctly.
Send a message to your friends
First of all, it is worth starting with your friends, who, knowing your caution and attention, which was shown to the car, will gladly agree to buy the car from you. Here the only thing is that you will not be able to sell it expensively, I suppose it will be difficult for you to ask your friends for an amount that will completely satisfy you. But you can always determine the average cost of your car yourself by similar cars on the sales market, or by asking for the opinion of an expert in car sales, as in Sherlock. This will help you set the right prices and find out the shortcomings of your car.
Choose the right platform
Choosing the right platform to list your car can have a significant impact on how quickly it sells. Options include:
Online Marketplaces: Sites like Dubizzle, YallaMotor and CarSwitch, Dubicars, these are all paid sites, on average the cost ranges from 90-700 dirhams for 30-90 days. In my opinion, the best option is Dubicars, as the price is not high, the application form is very simple and, most importantly, there are real customers.
Social Networks: Use Facebook pages about cars, there are a lot of them, so take only those groups where there are more than 10k subscribers and where there is high activity in the comments, then do not ignore your Instagram, you can always make a very simple Target for your ad by choosing the city of display and the age of buyers. The very last option is Telegram channels, today they are attracting more and more subscribers and you can also find buyers there.
Car showrooms and dealers:
If you are selling a luxury car, then you need luxury photos and of course the sale will be easier if you sell through car showrooms, which are incredibly large throughout Dubai, naturally they work by their own rules. This takes time and accordingly they will not take on your cars if they are not satisfied with your price. Do not forget about the car market in Shaj, now this place has become world-famous, especially for visitors from Russia, since for some time now cars from Dubai have become very popular with Russian buyers. That is why, as soon as you drive into the Sharjah car market, you will immediately be asked about selling or buying. In any case, if there is an intermediary, you lose 10-20% of the cost of your car.
Ideal time for sales
Do not sell cars in August, when everyone is leaving. For 5 years I have been working with expensive cars and all 5 years I have noticed a very strong decline in activity in all areas. Not only local Arabs and all workers of elite offices are leaving. That’s why selling cars after the start of the working season and in the middle of the season.
Sell your car fast in Dubai if you can’t, your last choice is to exchange it with an additional payment for the car you wanted to buy, or sell the car with a contract for partial payment, but for this you will need a lawyer and an agreement with the buyer on the payment schedule.
Good luck, friends.
