Hi,

I am new in switzerland and would like to buy a second-hand car.
I am wondering which documents are needed for buying a car and its insuring. especially I would like if permit is needed. my permit is not ready yet.

Kind Regards
mohammad

Any decent garage will do the paper work for you. You can even buy and register a car with no driving license, though you're not allowed driving it ...
Get a quote on tax and insurance before you buy a car.

^Yup, just get insurance sorted out and then let the garage do the rest. We were shocked at how easy it was. We showed up at the garage a couple days after we made the deal and the plates were on it and the grey card was in the glovebox - ready to go!
