Bolivian undocumented vehicle regularization debate
Overview
Bolivia is debating a proposed law for the extraordinary, one-time regularization of undocumented motor vehicles. The legislative process has faced scrutiny regarding the potential for laundering stolen property.
Senator Nicanor Cochi clarified that the law will not include vehicles identified as stolen from Chile, Argentina, or Brazil. He stated that such vehicles would be excluded from legalization and returned to their countries of origin. This follows concerns from Chilean senators regarding the movement of stolen vehicles across borders, particularly affecting northern Chile.
In response to the proposal, La Paz Governor Luis Revilla has called for the Plurinational Legislative Assembly to consult with departmental governments. Revilla emphasized the need to distinguish between vehicles lacking documentation and those with criminal records, arguing that the regulation must address the existing undocumented fleet without facilitating the entry of new illegal vehicles.
