Registering a French car

Hi All,

A little help please.

When we buy a French car, we always give the seller the Prefectures copy of the Certificate de Cession to inform the prefecture that we have bought the car.

When we sell a French car that is going back to France, we make new certificates de cession to show who we have sold the car to, what I want to know is, do we send a copy to the prefecture and if so, do we send it to the prefecture in the department where the car was originally registered or to the department where the car is going to be registered, or do we give the prefectures copy to the buyer so that they can give it to there prefecture?
