Question

I bumped into a car and made a dent in the license plate. As far as I understand, there is no real damage or depreciation. Do I need to inform or pay the car owner? 

Answer

Hello,

If during the annual test he is required to replace the plate due to the damage, you must inform him and pay for the replacement if he demands it. However, if he is not required to replace it, it is not considered damage, and there is no obligation to compensate the owner.
