What paperwork needs to be filed (on my end) when purchasing a used car from someone

I’m looking at the FB marketplace of people selling cheap cars (500-2k usd), and I’m looking to learn what kind of paperwork is needed for a yellow-plate car.

On the OIST [website](https://groups.oist.jp/living-guide/finding-car) it says that just two things are needed: Residence Certificate & Inkan.

I’ve owned a car in the US, and in the US you have to go to a place to get the car registered and get license plates that are assigned to me. Is it different here? Do I just inheret the plates?

The car itself needs have an inspection certificated, but this doesnt have to be renewed automatically if I purchase one that’s not expired.
