- 2/2 means a Czech buyer has paid for this, or a priced job also gets public money that pays part of it. A price on file makes it 1/2. Public money alone earns nothing. Only public buyers publish what they pay, so problems sold to private firms often score lower.

- No source on file
The transport ministry runs the state vehicle register and the online transport portal, and its bill would let owners finish most of these changes online. It sells nothing, and its portal is what any service has to work through.

About this section
- What this shows
- What stands between you and the first sale: who buys, what permission selling needs, what it must plug into, and whether it needs outside money.
- Why it matters to a builder
- It tells you whether a small team can start selling soon, or needs a licence, a certification or funding first.
- How to read the score
- More points mean easier to enter: 3/3 is easy, 0/3 very hard. It is not added to the Opportunity total, and local competition does not count here: that is Market gap.

Suggested first moves
- Ask a few used-car dealers and a leasing firm how many registrations they do a month, and who takes the papers to the office today.
- Build a simple order screen where a dealer drops the papers for many cars at once and sees each one's status.
- Follow the transport ministry's bill through parliament, and be ready to file through its online portal for firms the day it opens.

About this section
- What this shows
- A few concrete steps to start with.
- Why it matters to a builder
- They are cheap ways to learn whether buyers will pay, before you build much.
- Ask a few used-car dealers and a leasing firm how many registrations they do a month, and who takes the papers to the office today. The state says these firms handle a large share of all changes, as The opportunity shows, so their answer sizes the work.
- Build a simple order screen where a dealer drops the papers for many cars at once and sees each one's status. Offer it on top of the courier work the firms under Market gap already do, or as a partner to one of them.
- Follow the transport ministry's bill through parliament, and be ready to file through its online portal for firms the day it opens. The state says paid go-betweens can connect to the new online route, as Why now shows.
- Talk to a fleet manager about deregistering old cars in bulk, which today also needs plates handed back in person. That job stays with the owner until the bill passes.
