Can new car registration be handled by an agent?
1 Answers
New car registration can be handled by an agent, but relevant documents must be provided. Some local vehicle management offices require that the agent must have the necessary qualifications to process the relevant procedures. Documents required for new car registration by an agent: Original and photocopy of ID card (if acting on behalf of someone else, both the agent's and the car owner's IDs must be provided), original and photocopy of the invoice, original and photocopy of the vehicle qualification certificate, original and photocopy of the compulsory insurance policy (the duplicate will be retained), and the tax payment certificate (the duplicate will be retained). Obtaining the vehicle qualification certificate: The vehicle qualification certificate is very important. Some car 4S stores may delay providing the certificate, which can postpone the registration process. Therefore, it is crucial to obtain the vehicle qualification certificate as soon as possible. Communicate firmly with the 4S store to expedite the process. Keep the triplicate car purchase invoice: After purchasing the car, the 4S store will issue a triplicate invoice. It is essential to keep it safe as it will be needed for subsequent registration procedures. The invoice consists of red, yellow, and blue copies. Generally, the red and yellow copies will be submitted, while the yellow copy should be kept by the buyer. Pay the vehicle purchase tax and obtain the tax certificate: After purchasing the car, the vehicle purchase tax should be paid as soon as possible, usually at the nearest vehicle management office. Upon successful payment, the original and duplicate tax certificates will be issued. Make sure to keep them safe. Prepare various documents: Prepare the original ID card and photocopies (make several copies for backup). Non-local residents must provide the original and photocopy of the temporary residence permit. (For organizations, the original and photocopy of the organization code certificate are required.) Register and inspect the vehicle at the vehicle management office: Once all procedures are complete, you can go to the vehicle management office to register and apply for the license plate. First, a specialized traffic police officer will inspect the vehicle, mainly checking the vehicle identification code, appearance, and warning triangle plate, which should be prepared in advance. Choose the vehicle license plate number: After the inspection, you can go to the vehicle management office hall to select a license plate number. Generally, there are two options: self-selection or random selection. Pay the fee and wait for the license plate: After selecting the number, pay the fee and wait for the license plate, which usually takes three to five working days to be issued.
