You will also need:

After an Accident

If your car is involved in a severe accident, the police may take the Carte Grise and send it to the Prefecture.
If you feel the car can be repaired, you will need to get a report from a recognised expert, which explains the damage and proves that the car will be safe once repaired. The expert will provide a certificate which must be taken to the to the Préfecture. If it is satisfactory, your Carte Grise will be returned to you.
If the car cannot be repaired you must notify the Préfecture and the registration will be cancelled.
