Can Temporary License Plates Still Be Used After the Official Metal Plates Are Issued for a New Car?

[Rocha]

After the official metal plates are issued for a new car, the temporary license plates can still be used. Temporary license plates can be categorized into: 1. Temporary plates for use within the administrative jurisdiction; 2. Temporary plates for use across administrative jurisdictions; 3. Temporary plates for testing purposes; 4. Temporary plates for special-type motor vehicles. Temporary license plates are paper-based motor vehicle plates that permit temporary road use of the vehicle, also known as temporary vehicle plates. Conditions for applying for temporary license plates include: 1. Driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to the place of use; 2. Vehicle transfer, with official plates already surrendered; 3. New cars in the local area that have not yet obtained official plates and need to be driven elsewhere for modifications; 4. Purchasing a car locally and driving it to another region; 5. Needing temporary use before the vehicle registration is finalized.
