Can Beijing National IV Vehicles Be Transferred?

[VonCameron]

If the vehicle is being transferred within Beijing city, there is no need to consider whether a National IV vehicle can be transferred, as long as the vehicle is in good condition and meets the conditions for vehicle transfer in Beijing. However, National IV vehicles from outside Beijing cannot be transferred into Beijing. The emission standards primarily target vehicles from outside Beijing seeking local registration, not vehicles already registered in Beijing. Below are relevant details: 1. Many Beijing car owners attempt to upgrade National IV vehicles to National V standards through technical means before transferring them to Beijing. While this can indeed make the vehicle's emissions meet National V standards, it has no bearing on whether a National IV vehicle can be transferred in Beijing, as the vehicle's registration information at the local DMV still reflects the National IV standard. 2. In March 2016, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Several Opinions on Promoting the Convenient Trading of Used Cars," requiring all regions to cancel implemented policies restricting the transfer of used cars.
