In India, nothing is done without proper proof and authentication of the action being carried. And this task also includes verifying the documents of the person transporting their bike from one place to another.
A relocation as minor as bike transportation needs documents to authenticate that you are the bike’s owner and transporting it legally. Before telling you what documents are required for bike shifting, let us tell you why a photocopy of any original document is required for the task.
The Registration Certificate (RC) and the ID proof of the owner are required by the bike transport company for bike transportation via truck or train; that doesn’t matter.
Another reason for document requirement is to know who to refer to for the details during the entire shift. If the shifting is unnamed and the moving company doesn’t know who to contact in an emergency, how will they complete the relocation?
Authority should provide answers and make decisions in times of need. Hence, providing proper documents and all the required certificates is essential while transporting your bike or car to and from any location in India.
So, if you are about to shift your bike, for example, from Delhi to Bangalore, make sure you have the above-listed documents with you for smooth shifting.
