Can I choose a new car license plate number online by myself?

New car license plate numbers can be selected directly online. Whether it's a new car or a used car, you can retain your original license plate number. However, since the "Traffic Management 12123" platform has a "blacklist" function, you must pay attention when using it. Here are some details about license plate numbers: Introduction: A license plate number is an identification tag for vehicles, just like an ID number for people. License plate colors: White represents military or police plates; Blue represents ordinary small vehicles; Yellow represents ordinary large vehicles; Black represents vehicles used by foreign investors in China or important figures; Green represents new energy vehicles.
I also completed the selection of my new car's license plate online, which was quite convenient using the 12123 Traffic Management APP. First, download and install this official app on your phone, then register and log in to find the new car plate selection entry. When entering the vehicle information, be extra careful—key details like the engine number and chassis number must be filled in accurately. For self-selected plates, you can try 20 times, while the random selection mode offers 50 options in batches, with 180 seconds to confirm your choice. After successfully selecting a plate, you must complete the registration at the vehicle management office within 3 days, otherwise, the plate will be invalidated, and you'll be banned from online selection for 2 years. If you're not satisfied with the online selection, you can try your luck at the vehicle management office in person, but the online-selected plate will automatically become invalid.
