Can I Still Use Temporary License Plates After Receiving Official Ones?
1 Answers
After obtaining official license plates, temporary plates can no longer be used. Here are the relevant details: 1. Once a new vehicle receives its license plates, the temporary plates become invalid regardless of whether their expiration date has passed. Failure to promptly display the newly issued license plates may result in a penalty of 12 points deducted from the driver's license. 2. The paper license plates that allow temporary road use for motor vehicles are also known as temporary moving vehicle license plates. Temporary moving vehicle license plates are provisional driving permits issued by the vehicle management department of the public security authorities for newly purchased vehicles before formal registration. The validity period of temporary plates does not exceed thirty days. There are four categories of temporary 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.
