The question arises for the owners of excavators: do they need to register the self-propelled machines they own or lease?
Periodically, regarding such issues, they go to the traffic police, where they refuse and inform about the need to register the excavator with Rostechnadzor. However, this is incorrect, since such equipment should be registered (registered) with Gostekhnadzor , i.e. state supervision (technical inspection) over the technical condition of self-propelled vehicles and other types of equipment in the Russian Federation.
Registration of excavators with Gostekhnadzor often causes difficulties due to incorrectly completed documents.

Excavators are really popular among special equipment. No construction site can do without this type of equipment. Excavators are designed for excavating soil, as well as loading bulk materials; equipment equipped with a bucket is also used for moving minerals and other objects.
The design of special equipment implies two possible bases - tracked and wheeled. In the first case, the excavator is characterized by higher power and maneuverability. Tracked vehicles are designed for operation in extreme conditions, for example, in swampy areas or quarries. The disadvantage of such excavators is their low speed of movement and the need to organize their transportation to the work site. Wheeled vehicles, on the contrary, drive well on public roads and are used specifically for their construction and repair, as well as for the construction of buildings. Registration of an excavator with Gostekhnadzor is a mandatory procedure, regardless of the configuration of a particular model.
In accordance with the Rules for the state registration of tractors, self-propelled road-building and other machines and trailers for them by the state supervision authorities over the technical condition of self-propelled machines and other types of equipment in the Russian Federation (Gostekhnadzor), approved by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Russian Federation dated January 16, 1995 and Government Resolution dated August 12 .94 N 938 “On state registration of motor vehicles and other types of self-propelled equipment on the territory of the Russian Federation” all self-propelled equipment with a displacement of an internal combustion engine of more than 50 cubic meters are subject to mandatory state registration. cm or an electric motor power of more than 4 kW.
You need to know that the equipment is not automatically re-registered, as in the MREO of the State Traffic Inspectorate. When purchasing an excavator, you should make sure that it is not registered with any Gostekhnadzor; otherwise, it must first be deregistered, since this registration action can only be performed by the owner on whom the excavator is registered.
Almost no equipment is allowed onto any construction site without confirmation of its technical suitability for work. In order to have a technical examination, the excavator must be registered in the prescribed manner.

What difficulties may arise during registration?
Gostekhnadzor has established quite strict criteria for the documents provided. The most common mistake is to issue a passport for a self-propelled vehicle improperly. If there is the slightest clerical error, typo, or any correction, not only will you be denied registration, but there is also a high probability that your passport will be damaged, and in this condition you will no longer be able to present it for registration. In such a situation, you will need to obtain a duplicate passport, which entails additional costs and a lot of time, since the procedure is quite complicated.
In addition to issuing a passport for a self-propelled machine, there are many nuances regarding the documentation that you provide for registration; it is impossible to describe them all in this article, therefore, in order to save time and money, as well as to avoid unpleasant situations associated with the lack of registration of an excavator, we advise You should contact specialists.
Tractors (except walk-behind tractors), self-propelled road-building, reclamation, agricultural and other machines with a power plant power of more than 4 kW and the presence of a Self-Propelled Vehicle Passport (PSM), issued by the relevant authority. All applications to Gostekhnadzor of the city of Moscow are initially submitted electronically through the portal www.mos.ru (legal entities and individual entrepreneurs must use an electronic digital signature to submit applications). Applications to Gostekhnadzor of the Moscow Region can be submitted electronically through the portal www.mosreg. ru and the MFC branch (the process can take a long time), and in paper form directly to the branch closest to you on a first-come, first-served basis (faster than through the MFC, but less predictable in terms of wait).
When purchasing equipment first, you must make sure that the Seller has all registration documents, namely the Passport of the self-propelled vehicle (where the seller is listed as the owner), the Vehicle Registration Certificate (if the equipment was previously registered with the seller). If the Seller has state registration of equipment, he must first deregister it.
To transfer ownership of equipment, you must draw up a purchase and sale agreement with an act of acceptance and transfer of equipment. Agreements must be drawn up in 3 copies. One for the seller, the second for the buyer, the third for Gostekhnadzor. When purchasing equipment from an individual whose self-propelled vehicle passport (PSM) is an old-style form (pre-2015 sample), it is necessary to involve a Commissioner in the transaction.
When drawing up a sales contract and a transfer and acceptance certificate, be sure to indicate all the unit numbers indicated in the Self-propelled Vehicle Passport (PSM). You should also indicate the PSM number, who issued it and the date of its issue.

In Moscow, a Gostekhnadzor inspector can come out to inspect equipment only if you have a snowmobile or if you have 3 or more pieces of equipment from the same owner in one place. In other cases, the equipment must be submitted for inspection. Registration for an examination is carried out in advance (sometimes up to two weeks of waiting) through electronic submission of an application. in the Moscow region the situation is a little simpler; any visit by an inspector is pre-agreed upon a personal visit to the department (fees are charged for the inspection in addition to the duty).
BUT! If your equipment is located in another region, the Gostekhnadzor inspection where you are going to register it will not be able to inspect it! In this case, you should contact the regional office of Gostekhnadzor in the territory where your equipment is located.
After you have submitted an application on the portal www.mos.ru, you will receive a message in your personal account with the date and time of the examination.
After inspecting the equipment, the Gostekhnadzor inspector accepts the following set of documents from you:
