Can temporary license plates still be used after receiving the official ones?
1 Answers
After receiving the official license plates, temporary plates can no longer be used. Penalties for using temporary plates after receiving official ones: Once new license plates are received, regardless of whether the temporary plates have expired or not, they become invalid. If the newly received license plates are not promptly displayed, the driver will face a penalty of 12 points deducted from their driving license. Definition and categories of temporary license plates: Temporary license plates are paper-based motor vehicle plates that allow temporary road use, also known as temporary driving plates. These are issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau for newly purchased vehicles before official registration. The validity period of temporary plates does not exceed 30 days. There are four categories: temporary plates for administrative jurisdictions, cross-administrative jurisdiction temporary plates, experimental temporary plates, and special-type motor vehicle temporary plates.
