Can I get my license plate on the same day I pick up my car at the 4S store?

You can get your license plate on the same day you pick up your car at the 4S store. Here is some information about vehicle license plates: 1. Introduction: License plates, commonly known as car plates, are panels hung on the front and rear of the vehicle. They are usually made of aluminum, iron, plastic, or paper, and display the vehicle's registration number, registration area, or other relevant information. 2. Function: License plates serve as a numbering and information registration system for vehicles. Their main purpose is to identify the region to which the vehicle belongs and to trace the vehicle's owner and registration details through the plate number. 3. 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. Temporary plates have time and regional restrictions.
I got my license plate on the same day I picked up the car at the 4S dealership, and the whole process went smoothly, but it depends on the preparation. The 4S dealership helped me gather all the necessary documents, including the car purchase invoice, ID card copy, vehicle certification, and compulsory insurance policy. We went in the morning and visited the DMV in the afternoon. There weren’t many people at the DMV, and after queuing for an hour, I got the plate installed. However, my neighbor mentioned that his materials were incomplete last time, and his insurance wasn’t active, so he had to wait two days. So, it’s advisable to communicate with the salesperson before pickup to confirm all procedures are complete, especially ensuring the insurance takes effect on the same day. Also, bring some cash or a card for faster payment. Keep a temporary license plate ready just in case. In short, if the 4S dealership cooperates and all materials are prepared, getting it done on the same day is entirely possible, saving a lot of time and allowing you to drive your new car home directly.
