Can ETC be changed to a different license plate number?

ETC license plate number change method: The vehicle owner must bring their ID card and a copy, vehicle registration certificate and a copy, the ETC device, and the bank card used to bind the ETC to the bank for processing. After verifying the documents, the bank staff will cancel the ETC binding to the original license plate information and rebind it to the new license plate number. The bank staff will install the ETC in the vehicle and activate it on-site for normal use. The ETC installation process is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and the red light will briefly turn on. The OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning properly. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and stick it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice in succession until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If "Tag Invalid" appears when inserting and removing the card twice without attaching the electronic tag, this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, press the button on the top of the electronic tag directly to enable Bluetooth. Turn on the phone’s Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a QR code for download is provided on the electronic tag). Enter the device activation interface. Click "Device Connection" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. After successful connection, upload a photo of the vehicle’s front to complete activation.
