Can License Plates Be Transferred?
1 Answers
License plates cannot be transferred. At most, you can only apply to use the original license plate number on a new car after transferring ownership or scrapping the vehicle. Nominally transferring a license plate actually means the plate and vehicle registration are 'bound' together as one. By transferring the property rights of the vehicle, the vehicle's information is changed and registered under the new owner's name, achieving the purpose of transferring the license plate. If you want to switch to a new car and continue using the original license plate, you need to meet the following three conditions: 1. Three years or more: The original license plate has been used for three years or more; 2. Within six months: The application to continue using the original license plate must be made within six months after completing the transfer or cancellation of registration; 3. No violations: All traffic violations and accident-related issues involving the original vehicle must be resolved.
