However, what if you do not have the old owner's ID card (KTP)? This situation often occurs when someone buys a used vehicle and has not transferred the ownership yet.

Can you pay the vehicle tax (STNK) without the old owner's KTP? Find out the answer below, and learn about the solutions you can take.

Can You Pay STNK Tax Without KTP?

You can still pay and extend the STNK tax without the old owner's KTP. The way to do this is by transferring the ownership of the vehicle, which does not require the original owner's identity.

However, you still need the vehicle registration certificate (BPKB) and the purchase receipt. After transferring the ownership, the new owner can pay the STNK tax online or directly at the Samsat office using their personal ID card.

How to Transfer Vehicle Ownership

Transferring vehicle ownership, whether it's a motorcycle or a car, consists of two stages: transferring the STNK ownership, followed by transferring the BPKB ownership.

Here is how to transfer vehicle ownership as quoted from the Portal Informasi Indonesia website:

1. Transfer of STNK Ownership

Before processing the transfer of STNK ownership, you need to prepare the following requirements:

- Original and photocopy of the STNK under the old owner's name

- Original and photocopy of the BPKB
