FAQ
The longest loan period is 20 years.
Since this type of loan is associated with large amounts of money and a large volume of documents, the term for making a decision by the Bank depends on two stages of verification. First, the Bank will check your solvency, this stage takes no more than 5 working days on average. Then the Bank will need to check the documents for the land or property you are buying, as well as make an assessment of it.
There is no single solution. If you need the lowest monthly payment, then take loan for the maximum possible period. If you are not sure that you will have a consistently high income, then take as little time as possible.
The minimum down payment for a new car is 20% of purchase price, for a used car – 30% of purchase price.
Payment terms for Brand New cars – up to 60 months.
Payment terms for Used cars – up to 48 months.
No, the car is your property from the moment of purchase, but remains the bank’s guarantee for the loan period. This means that you cannot sell the car, and you also have to pay for car insurance so that the bank can receive its money in any case.
Documents confirming income and identification are the main requirements for obtaining a car loan.

After buying a car, you need to pay for insurance.
Initial registration is usually done by agents, so you get a copy of OR / CR. You must remember that the initial registration is valid for 3 years, so after that you need to renew it annually in LTO.
On average, initial approval of a Personal credit application can be done from 10 minutes to 1 day, depending on the bank. Final approval takes on average from 24 hours to 5 days. You just need to make sure your documents are completed when you submit them.
Credit funds can be issued immediately after the application is approved or 1-3 banking days after a successful phone check.
