If replacement is needed, both plates must be replaced together. However, you can also choose not to replace them and simply report the plate as lost, then proceed to apply for new plates directly. When applying for replacement plates, two plates are always issued at once. The rear plate can be kept as a spare without replacement. Materials required for replacing a new license plate: (1) Application form for motor vehicle license plate replacement (the content of the application form should be filled in with a pen or signature pen and must not be altered). (2) Vehicle license plates. (3) If one plate is lost or replaced, the other plate should be surrendered and replaced; if damaged or replaced, both plates should be surrendered and replaced simultaneously. (4) Original and copy of the identity proof of the motor vehicle owner. (5) If a representative is handling the case, they must also submit their identity proof.
