It is just a way of tracking a vehicle into and out of a country and they check that the vehicle matches the paperwork
Hope that helps

You are required to turn in your permit when you leave the country. When I left mexico for Guatemala I did not cancel my permit. I knew I would be back in Mexico before the permit expired so I was going to try to save another permit purchase / deposit and it worked. When I re entered through Belize I sailed on through.
