Please note that the exact process can vary depending on your jurisdiction and the specific tax authorities involved. It's advisable to consult with a local tax advisor or legal expert for precise guidance tailored to your situation.
### Steps to Surrender Dealer Registration Without Original Certificate
1. **Contact Tax Authorities**: Contact the tax authorities where your old dealer registration is currently registered. This could be the Central Excise Department or the GST Department, depending on your business activities and applicable regulations.
2. **Request for Surrender**: Inform them about your intention to surrender the dealer registration associated with your old premises and explain that you do not have the original registration certificate.

4. **Form Requirements**: Depending on your jurisdiction, there may be a specific form for surrendering registration. This form could vary (e.g., Form ST-3 for Service Tax in India, Form GST REG-16 for GST in India). Check with your tax authorities to obtain the correct form applicable to your situation.
5. **Letter**: Along with the application form, you may need to submit a letter addressed to the tax authorities. In the letter: - State your intention clearly to surrender the registration. - Provide details such as your old registration number and address. - Mention that the original registration certificate is not available and provide any supporting documents or copies you have related to the registration.
6. **Documentation**: Provide any available documentation related to your old registration, such as copies of past returns, acknowledgment of registration, or correspondence with tax authorities. This helps in verifying your registration details.
