Can I continue using temporary license plates after receiving the official ones?

No. Here are the details: Reason: After receiving the official license plates, the temporary plates become invalid regardless of whether they have expired or not. Temporary license plates have a specific validity period and can still be used temporarily if removed before this period ends. Once the validity period of the temporary plates expires, the relevant authorities will reclaim them and require the owner to properly dispose of them. From then on, only the official license plates can be used. Temporary license plates: Temporary license plates are issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau when a car has not yet been officially registered due to pending procedures. The validity period of temporary license plates generally does not exceed 30 days. The use of temporary plates is time-limited and region-specific. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary plates for administrative jurisdictions, temporary plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions, temporary plates for testing purposes, and temporary plates for special-type motor vehicles.
