Can Temporary License Plates Still Be Used After Official License Plates Are Issued?

[OManuel]

Official license plates have been issued and temporary license plates cannot be used. The following is relevant information about license plates: 1. Reason: After receiving official license plates, regardless of whether the temporary license plates have expired, they become invalid. If caught, you may face penalties such as vehicle impoundment, a fine of 200 yuan, and 12 demerit points. 2. Temporary license plates: Temporary license plates for vehicles are issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau when the vehicle has not yet been officially registered due to pending procedures. The validity period of temporary license plates generally does not exceed thirty days. The use of temporary license plates is time-limited and region-specific. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary license plates for administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for testing purposes, and temporary license plates for special types of motor vehicles. 3. Time limit: Temporary license plates have a certain time limit, and they can still be used temporarily if removed before this limit is reached. When the validity period of the temporary license plates expires, the relevant authorities will reclaim the temporary license plates and require the owner to destroy them, after which only official license plates can be used.
