The Regional Transport Offices oversee all vehicle-related operations; they handle vehicle registration, issue driving licenses, and even serve as the designated location for obtaining permits for commercial vehicles.
In light of these responsibilities, the Government of Kerala has increased the number of RTOs across the state to ensure that citizens do not face any difficulties in accessing vehicle related services.
Currently, every district in Kerala has more than one RTO. You can obtain the names, addresses, and contact details of the RTOs in your district from the table provided below.

How to register a vehicle at any RTO in Kerala?
To obtain permanent registration for any new vehicle at any RTO in Kerala, you must first arrange the following documents.
Sale Invoice
Form 20 (Application for Registration)
Insurance Certificate
Address Proo
ID Proof
PAN Card / Form 60
Temporary Registration
Once all the documents have been arranged, you must visit the RTO, along with your vehicle, where you wish to have it permanently registered.
After reaching the RTO, speak with the officials there to inform them that you have purchased a new car/bike/scooter and have brought it in for registration. Then, they will ask you to submit the required documents; do so.
After reviewing all the documents, the officer will conduct a physical inspection of your newly purchased vehicle; once they have verified all the details, you will be required to pay the applicable charges including road tax and registration fee.
After making the payment, you will receive a new registration number and shortly after that you will receive your HSRP; a few weeks later, registration certificate will be received at your address via the speed post.
