Frequent errors and reasons for refusal of service
Statistics show that about 30% of initial applications are rejected due to banal errors. The most common reason is scanner. If the camera of the smartphone focused on the background, and not on the text of the document, the operator will not be able to verify the data and will have to refuse.
The second common mistake is data mismatch. For example, the child’s birth certificate may change the name after the mother’s marriage, and the application indicates a new one, but the document on the change of surname is not attached. The system sees the difference and blocks the issuance of permission.
Also, refusals occur if the car has restrictions on registration actions or is on bail, although for parking permits this is less critical than for other public services. The main thing is the exact match of body numbers and chassis in the CTC and in the database.
Tip: Before taking photos of documents, wipe the smartphone camera and the glass on which the paper lies. This will significantly improve the clarity of the picture and reduce the risk of failure.
