The entire process can be done digitally through the agency's official portal, with verification of accumulated debts and payment of IPVA and outstanding fines, including via PIX. Once the fee of R$ 174.08 has been paid and the Renavam number has been entered, the update of the digital Vehicle Registration and Licensing Certificate (CRLV-e) is immediate and can be downloaded or printed on plain paper (A4) through the Detran-SP, Poupatempo or National Traffic Secretariat (Senatran) portals, or accessed through the Poupatempo Digital and CDT applications. The agency warns: if the electronic licensing appears unavailable for issuance at the terminals, the owner must immediately check the existence of administrative restrictions, active judicial blocks or pending issues in the transfer of ownership of the vehicle.
