Can Temporary License Plates Be Issued on Saturdays and Sundays?
1 Answers
Temporary license plates cannot be issued for new vehicles on Saturdays and Sundays. Vehicle management offices are closed on weekends and public holidays, so the registration process can only be completed during normal working hours from Monday to Friday. According to Article 46 of the 'Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles': For ordinary consumers purchasing new vehicles for temporary driving within the administrative jurisdiction, temporary license plates with a validity period not exceeding 15 days will be issued. For temporary driving across administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates with a validity period not exceeding 30 days will be issued. If the owner of the motor vehicle needs to apply for temporary license plates multiple times, the vehicle management office may issue them no more than three times. To apply for temporary license plates, the applicant must provide a letter of introduction from their employer, proof of vehicle origin, the vehicle's certificate of conformity, and other relevant documents (except for the letter of introduction, which will be kept on file, the rest will be returned to the applicant). The application must be submitted to the vehicle management office. During the application, the applicant must specify the start and end locations of the vehicle's route and the duration for which the temporary license plates will be used. After the administrators review the documents and inspect the vehicle, temporary license plates will be issued, with the validity period and route locations clearly indicated.
