Dutch term or phrase: vrijwaring
I've looked at the existing entries but I'm not sure they fit here. This is part of a document regarding the purchase of vehicles:

Indien u voor de ophaaldag reeds betaald en vervolgens alvast de tenaamstellingscodes opvraagt, kunt u het voertuig alvast te naam stellen vóórdat u het voertuig komt halen. U hoeft dan alleen de vrijwaring af te geven en kunt het voertuig meteen meenemen.

In this context, does vrijwaring mean proof of registration transfer?

(And is it the same as "vrijwaringsbewijs", which Wikipedia describes as "een document dat als bewijs dient om aan te tonen dat het kenteken van een verkocht voertuig niet meer op naam staat van de verkoper"?)

When you sell your vehicle privately you must let us know, and tell us the exact date you sold it, by filling in section 6 on the V5C. Both you and the buyer must sign the joint declaration. You must also fill in the V5C/2 and give it to the buyer. It is important to remember that you are liable for the vehicle until you have told us that you are no longer the registered keeper

Once we know about the changes, you should receive an acknowledgement letter to confirm that you are no longer liable for the vehicle. If you do not receive the letter within 4 weeks, please phone 0300 790 6802. If you are deaf or hard of hearing and have access to a textphone, phone 0300 123 1279. (This number will not respond to ordinary phones.)

letter confirming your not being the re

Or just: the/your confirmation/proof of release of liability

I mean, if there is no official name for the UK, call a spade a spade.

Reference information:
Als u uw voertuig verkoopt, moet u er voor zorgen dat de koper het voertuig op zijn naam overschrijft. Gebeurt dat niet, dan blijft u verantwoordelijk voor de verplichtingen die horen bij het op naam hebben van een voertuig. Als u een bekeuring krijgt, moet u deze betalen. [this is why it is called 'vrijwaring'] Hier kunt u lezen wat u moet doen om dit te voorkomen.

U kunt het voertuig verkopen aan een particulier of rechtspersoon (B.V., N.V., V.O.F.) of aan een RDW erkend bedrijf.

Voertuig verkopen aan een particulier of rechtspersoon
1.U vraagt de koper om de overschrijving te regelen bij een kentekenloket of RDW-balie. U kunt eventueel zelf mee gaan, maar dat hoeft niet.
2.U geeft de koper de documenten die hij nodig heeft om het voertuig op zijn naam te laten zetten (zie onder ‘documenten die u aan de koper moet geven om het voertuig op naam te zetten').
3.De koper krijgt van de medewerker een bewijs dat het voertuig niet meer op uw naam staat. Dit bewijs heet een vrijwaringsbewijs.
4.U vraagt de koper om het vrijwaringsbewijs. Hiermee kunt u aantonen dat het voertuig niet meer van u is.
5.Als u dit bewijs heeft gekregen, geeft u de koper:
als u in het bezit bent van het papieren kentekenbewijs:
- het Voertuigbewijs, het APK-keuringsrapport en het voertuig

Reference information:
Notifying the DVLA of a Private Sale

When you sell a car to a new owner, the DVLA need to be informed that you are no longer the registered owner of the vehicle. If this is not done, you can still be liable for the vehicle, even though you are no longer the owner. The DVLA will expect to be informed as soon as the vehicle passes between owners.

For a two-part V5C registration document, you need to fill in the 'notification of sale or transfer' section and send it to the DVLA. The other half of the document should be given to the buyer on purchase of the vehicle. The buyer is then responsible for informing the DVLA of the new ownership.

For the three-part V5C registration document, you need to fill in the top half (the blue part) of the three-part V5 registration declaration with the details of the new owner. You will need to sign the document (as will the person to whom you are selling the vehicle). Once this is done, you need to send it to the DVLA. Give the green section to the new owner so that he or she can fill it in themselves.

For the V5C registration certificate, you need to fill in section 6 (the 'new keeper or new name/ new address details' section), and both you and the new owner need to sign the declaration in section 8. The green section should be given to the buyer. As with the V5 registration declaration document, it is your responsibility to send this to the DVLA.

Once the DVLA have been notified of the change in ownership, they should send you a letter within around a month to confirm that you are no longer liable for the vehicle.
