Can a lost new car invoice be reissued?

[AubreeAnn]

New car invoices cannot be reissued if lost. Here is relevant information about lost invoices: Laws and regulations: Losing a car invoice will prevent the vehicle from being transferred. If the vehicle has not yet been registered, obtained a vehicle registration certificate, or driving license, it is urgent to reissue the car invoice according to "The State Administration of Taxation's Notice on Handling Issues Regarding Consumers Losing Motor Vehicle Sales Invoices". Specific process: Go to the motor vehicle sales unit to obtain a copy of the unified sales invoice stub from the staff, stamped with the sales unit's invoice special seal. Then go to the competent tax authority department at the seller's location for confirmation and registration. After that, the sales unit will reissue a motor vehicle sales invoice with the same content as the original sales invoice stub.

If you lose the new car invoice, it can indeed be reissued. I've encountered this situation a few times. The key is to promptly contact the dealership where you originally purchased the vehicle. Bring your original ID card to the dealership, and they will check the purchase records. After verification, they will reissue a duplicate invoice marked with 'Replacement' on it. The replacement invoice has the same legal validity, but it may take some time, possibly a few days. Don't delay because this document is essential for license plate registration and ownership transfer. It could be even more troublesome if it involves insurance claims. I also recommend asking the sales consultant about the specific materials required, as different brands may require an additional application or something similar. After obtaining the replacement, remember to make several copies and store them separately to avoid affecting your car usage if lost again.

Last time I helped a friend deal with a similar situation when he panicked after losing the purchase invoice for his new car. I told him to just go directly to the 4S dealership, as getting a replacement is quite fast. As long as the car buyer brings their ID to the dealership, fills out a form explaining the reason, they can usually get a copy the same day. The cost isn't high, maybe just a small service fee of a few dozen yuan. But don't think you can't drive without the invoice - the temporary license plate can still be used, it's just that formal procedures will be blocked. I think losing it once serves as a lesson to be more careful, and it's safer to keep the invoice and vehicle license together in the future.

Getting a replacement invoice is certainly no problem, the key is to have the dealership handle it. They have the original records in their system, and after verifying the owner's identity, they can reprint a copy. The process isn't complicated; just bring your documents, explain the situation clearly, and it should be fine. It doesn't have much impact during the new car phase, but in the long run, this document is essential for second-hand car transfers. Without it, you might face price reductions when selling later. Getting it replaced promptly is the most hassle-free approach.
