Can a temporary license plate be reapplied if it was issued incorrectly?

Temporary license plates can be reapplied if they were issued incorrectly. Here are the relevant details about temporary license plates: Motor Vehicle License Plate: A paper license plate that permits temporary road use of a motor vehicle, also known as a temporary driving license plate. It is issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau for newly purchased vehicles before official registration. Validity Period: Generally, the validity period does not exceed 30 days. For out-of-town temporary plates, the validity period typically ranges from 3 to 15 days. However, this does not mean a 15-day plate can be directly issued. The validity period of a temporary license plate depends on the distance between the vehicle registration location and Beijing. For example, if a car is purchased in Beijing and driven back to Tibet for registration—an extreme case—a 15-day temporary license plate is usually issued. For nearby regions like Hebei and Tianjin, out-of-town temporary plates are usually valid for only 1-2 days. Even for southern cities like Guangdong and Shanghai, the maximum validity period for out-of-town temporary plates is typically around 3-7 days.
