Fuel vehicle quotas can be changed to new energy vehicle quotas. Switching vehicle quota types: If the fuel vehicle or new energy vehicle quota application is under review, you must reapply before changing the quota type; after approval, you can log into the system, go to the user center, and click "Application Form" in the quota configuration section to switch the quota type. Unsuccessful online operation: If there are obstacles in the online operation, the quota switching service can be processed at the nearest district-level vehicle service window. Vehicle quota notice: Individuals cannot apply for both fuel vehicle configuration quotas and new energy vehicle quotas simultaneously.

I've been keeping an eye on car quota policies, and recently while helping a friend with a similar issue, I found out that you can't directly swap a fuel vehicle license plate for a new energy vehicle plate. Most cities require you to first relinquish or sell your existing fuel vehicle quota. For example, in Beijing, you need to participate in a special lottery for new energy vehicles, and the whole process can take several weeks. I recommend checking the application process directly on the local DMV website and preparing your ID and vehicle documents. The trend towards new energy vehicles is strong right now, with electric cars saving on fuel costs and enjoying government subsidies, plus charging infrastructure is improving. Acting early can help you take advantage of the preferential period. From personal experience, applying for a new energy vehicle quota first is more straightforward and avoids the hassle of conversion.

What is the vehicle scrappage standard?

For domestic 5-seater cars and 7-seater SUVs, as well as non-commercial small and micro vehicles, there is no usage period limit. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide the scrappage. In addition to the above vehicles, small and micro non-commercial passenger cars, large non-commercial cars, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage period limit. Commercial vehicles have scrappage periods, as follows: Small and micro taxi passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 12 years. Public transport passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 13 years, other small and micro commercial passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger vehicles have a scrappage period of 15 years. Micro commercial trucks have a scrappage period of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks have a scrappage period of 10 years. The vehicle scrappage process is as follows: The vehicle owner applying for scrappage renewal must fill out one copy of the "Motor Vehicle Change, Transfer, Modification, Suspension, Scrappage Approval Application Form" and affix the owner's seal. The registration office will accept the application and issue a "Vehicle Scrappage Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrappage period. For vehicles that have not reached the scrappage period, after inspection by the motor vehicle inspection office and confirmation that they meet the scrappage standards, a "Vehicle Scrappage Notice" will be issued. The vehicle owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The vehicle owner must submit the "Change Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Inspection Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and vehicle dismantling photos to the motor vehicle inspection office for verification and signature. The license plates will be reclaimed, and the scrappage registration will be processed after approval according to regulations. Special Notes: According to Article 30 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle is damaged and cannot be driven back to the registration location, the owner can sell the scrapped vehicle to a local motor vehicle recycling company. If a commercial vehicle is converted to a non-commercial vehicle, it must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle's scrappage period. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the transfer or cancellation of motor vehicle registration, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a newly purchased vehicle. The application to use the original license plate number must meet the following conditions: (1) The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation registration; (2) The owner must have owned the original vehicle for more than three years.

How to Check Car Color?

Every car has a label that outlines the vehicle's identification information. This sticker typically includes a barcode listing the car's brand. The paint color code will be clearly marked as "VIN". Browse the information on the label to find the specifically listed paint or color code. In some vehicles, the paint color code may only be identified by an abbreviation or shorthand.
