Can a Used Car with Temporary License Plate Travel to Another Province?
1 Answers
It depends on the type of temporary license plate issued. One type is the temporary license plate for administrative jurisdictions, which has a sky-blue background with black characters and black borders, and is not allowed to travel to other provinces. The other type is the temporary license plate for cross-administrative jurisdictions, which has a brown-yellow background with black characters and black borders, and this type is permitted to travel to other provinces. Validity Period: Temporary license plates have a validity period, with a maximum of 30 days, and for new cars, it must not exceed 15 days. Therefore, it is necessary to apply for a formal license plate from the vehicle management authority within the validity period. Driving with an expired temporary license plate may result in the vehicle being impounded and a deduction of 12 points from the driver's license. Placement Requirements: There are usually two temporary license plates, and their function is almost the same as that of formal license plates. However, their placement differs. One temporary license plate should be placed on the lower left or right corner of the front windshield, and the other must be placed on the lower left corner of the rear windshield. They should not be placed randomly.
