The first thing you need for registration is the down payment. If he is on hand, then you can safely start looking for a car in order to get a loan.
An application for a loan must be submitted by appearing in a bank branch. You cannot apply online for this type of loan.
If the application is approved, then you can begin to apply for a car loan. It is the creditor who selects the appropriate equipment and model of the machine.
It is important not to forget about the final insurance, or rather, its amount.
If all the formalities are met, the borrower makes an initial payment and signs the documents necessary for the provision of a loan.
The agreement shall indicate the amount paid by the state. In addition, it lists all the terms of the transaction (interest rate, maturity, loan closing procedure). Only after signing this document the borrower can use the vehicle.
Where to go?
The program of state subsidies for car loans is presented in several banks. And although this is a program from the state, the terms of lending are different everywhere. To choose the most advantageous offer, you must compare several borrowers at once.
Sberbank
The government subsidized car loan program first appeared in this bank. Therefore, the list of services here is slightly expanded.
For example, a bank is ready to provide a choice of two options for obtaining a loan:
- Classical.
- One when you need only two documents.
The bank also sets forth conditions, and these include the following:
- The borrower must be a citizen of our country.
- The age of the borrower must be over twenty one years.

- down payment can reach up to fifty percent, but can not be less than fifteen;
- individual interest rate;
- software is the machine itself.
The interest rate is calculated based on the borrower's income, term and amount of the loan, changes in state subsidies.
If all the requirements are satisfied, then you can apply for a loan.

Pros and cons of car loans
The state program for subsidizing car loans in 2017 and 2018 has its advantages and disadvantages.
The pluses include the following:
- You can get a car without saving money or wasting time.
- There is an opportunity to save, because the state provides a subsidy.
- Relatively low interest rate when compared with other types of loans.
- There is a possibility of early repayment.
Cons are also available:
- The credit does not include options that improve the configuration of the machine.
- Insurance is a prerequisite for issuing a loan.
- You need to make monthly payments before the loan expires.
- The requirement to have a down payment.
The essence of the program
State subsidization of car loans in 2018 is aimed at ensuring that the average Russian can afford to buy a car. This program has several advantages over others. Due to them, it becomes easier to purchase a vehicle.
The low interest rate is due to the fact that part of the payments is borne by the state. That is, approximately two-thirds of the bank does not require a borrower. Thus, the loanee pays smaller amounts, which means that the overpayment is reduced.
A few years ago it was impossible to buy a car without a down payment of a third of the cost of the car. At the moment, the down payment is also required, but it is halved.
Insurance requirements have been simplified. For example, a car loan in Sberbank with state subsidies can be issued on the basis of CASCO, not CTP, as before. Such a simplification significantly saves the borrower money.
The risk of running into scammers or a bank that does not comply with the law is minimized. This is because the state scrupulously controls all banking organizations that operate under the program. That is, if the bank provides a loan on the basis of the state program, then it is definitely accredited. Reliability is what attracts new borrowers.
Action algorithm
It doesn’t matter in which bank a car loan with state subsidies is taken - 2017 at VTB 24, Sberbank or any other bank, because getting it is harder than a simple consumer one. To surely get approval, you should use our instructions.
To get a car loan with state support, it is best to choose a car from Russian manufacturers. You must remember when choosing restrictions on the age and price of the car. To simplify your task, you can contact the bank for a list of dealers.
The most popular brands of cars with state support:
- Hyundai Solaris.
- "Renault Logan".
- Nissan Almera (some configurations).
- "Lada" ("Priora", "Vesta", "Kalina" and so on).
- Daewoo Nexia.
- Chevrolet Cobalt.
- Peugeot
- "Ford Focus".
The next step is to compare bank offers, because they are different everywhere. For example, in VTB, a car loan with state subsidies in 2017 differed in terms from the same Gazprombank or Sberbank. For this reason, it is necessary to carefully study all the information about both the loan itself and the bank. To make the right choice, you need to pay attention to the rating, which are independent rating agencies, reviews about the bank, how much a banking organization exists, whether there are branches in the immediate vicinity, additional loan conditions and interest rates.
After the bank is selected, you must submit an application and prepare a package of documents. In order to get a car loan with state subsidies in banks of St. Petersburg, Moscow or provincial cities, most often require the same package of documents. This is a passport, a certificate in the form of 2-NDFL, a second document (driver’s license, passport, TIN, etc.), a certified copy of the employment contract or a copy of the employment book.
Most banking organizations also put forward general job requirements. To get a loan, you need to have six months of experience in one place and five years in total. Most often, loans are issued to people over twenty-one years old and under sixty years old, but it all depends on the bank. Each bank requires the borrower to have registration in the region where the bank is located and Russian citizenship.
In addition to all of the above, you may need the written consent of the spouse, information about additional sources of income, information about the property of the borrower.
Although a few years ago it was possible to get a loan only by coming to the bank in person, now an online application is enough to complete the application. Both applications are processed differently in each bank. In one they give an answer in a few hours, and in the other in a few days.
It is important to remember that approving an online application is a preliminary rather than an accurate answer. The latter will be given only after a personal visit to the bank with all documents.
The next step is to sign the contract. And here, before you put the signature, you need to carefully read everything. This is especially true for small print, because, as a rule, it is with them that the most important information is gathered. During the reading, you need to pay attention to the obligations of the parties (that is, the bank and the borrower), methods of repaying the loan (very good if there will be several), conditions for early closure of the loan (interest for closing ahead of schedule and where to apply), additional fees (opening bills), the final interest rate (without reading the contract carefully, over time you can find its increase).
The borrower must complete the sale and register the car in the traffic police. When all actions are completed, the vehicle passport is transferred to the bank. As a result, the initial payment is paid first, and then the car becomes a guarantee.
It is also interesting that the car will have to be insured by both CASCO and CTP. In general, insurance costs separately, but it also happens that it is included in the loan amount.
After all the steps are completed, the borrower can pick up his car and use it. But he becomes a full owner only after the loan is closed. Upon its closure, you should take a note from the bank stating that there are no debts to the bank, and remove the burden from the car.
Conclusion
From the article it is clear that the purchase of a car under the state subsidy program is extremely profitable. But still, before you take such a crucial step, it is worth weighing the pros and cons. Because if this is not done, then you can stay with debt and without a car.The choice of the bank also plays a role, so preference should be given to those organizations that have established themselves in the market. Well, carefully read the contract so that subsequently unpleasant surprises do not come out. If you follow all these rules, a loan will not become a burden and a problem, and the car will please you for more than one year.
