Argentina Halts Private Auto Registration Data Feed, Plans Open DNRPA Portal

Officials promise a public portal to replace a paid feed that favored select industry users.

Overview

  • The Justice Ministry cut off the DNRPA data flow to SIOMAA this week after finding unequal, nontransparent access to registral statistics.
  • Authorities say a private intermediary had been distributing official patenting data to ACARA-linked companies as a paid service reportedly costing hundreds of thousands of pesos.
  • DNRPA is building an open, centralized system to publish registral information and ensure equitable access for all users.
  • Until the platform launches, the ministry will issue official reports on request via privadad@dnrpa.gov.ar or by formal note, with monthly inscriptions and transfers broken down by jurisdiction, brand, model and vehicle type.
  • February 0 km registration figures have been delayed, and the Justice Ministry’s site currently provides public data only through January.
