Deregistration Info
Fleetwise Deregistration Process:
When purchasing an insurance write off through Fleetwise that is sold deregistered, our insurance company has instructed that these are to be transferred into the new buyer’s name first, whilst the plate is still live, then Fleetwise is to deregister the vehicle.
This is so that infringements accumulated post auction aren’t sent to the previous owner or the insurance company (who would’ve been the last registered owner should the vehicle already been deregistered pre-auction). It is preferred by the insurance company that the written off vehicles are sold & absorbed by the parts/wrecking trade. This process is a benefit for those who wish to resurrect the written off vehicle as it is easier for NZTA to trace you to the vehicle as you are the last registered owner.
It should be noted that this process is non-negotiable as it is under the instruction of the insurance company. If you don’t agree with the process, then do not bid.
