The green book can be obtained on the spot after the transfer of a used car. Precautions for the transfer of a used car: When relocating, consult the local vehicle management office in advance to clarify the name of the office. Vehicle insurance is required for registration in another location, so do not cancel the vehicle insurance before obtaining the license plate in another place. Cancel the commercial insurance and compulsory insurance after the vehicle is licensed. Before processing the transfer, all traffic violation records of the vehicle must be cleared. Documents required for the transfer of a used car: Original owner's ID card, new owner's ID card, original/duplicate of the vehicle license, purchase tax certificate, vehicle and vessel tax payment certificate, motor vehicle registration certificate, motor vehicle criminal inspection sheet, road maintenance fee receipt, insurance policy/card/invoice. All the above documents must be provided in original.
A few days ago, I bought a used car and got the green book (vehicle registration certificate) right at the DMV after completing the transfer procedures on the same day. The whole process went smoothly. The seller and I went together, first checked the car's condition, then queued to submit the documents, including ID cards, the vehicle license, and a copy of the original car's registration certificate. The staff worked very quickly, and I got the new green book in less than an hour. Remember to carefully check details like the owner's name, license plate number, and engine number after receiving it to avoid future troubles. I also asked the staff, and they said this process is designed for efficiency, so there's no need to worry about long waits. Once the transfer is done properly, you can drive out with peace of mind. I recommend everyone to book an appointment in advance to avoid delays due to crowds.
From what I understand, the green book (vehicle registration certificate) for used car transfers can usually be obtained on the spot. I've handled this procedure at the DMV several times - once the transfer formalities are approved, the system automatically prints the new registration certificate and hands it directly to the new owner. However, sometimes you might have to queue for about ten minutes, or if there's equipment failure, you may need to come back another day to collect it. So I recommend going early and bringing all required documents: ID card, vehicle license, purchase invoice, insurance policy, etc., to avoid mistakes and rework. When you get the green book back, be sure to check that all information is correct, especially that the owner's name isn't written incorrectly. Overall, DMV services are improving with increasingly higher efficiency - no need to worry unnecessarily, you'll get it done.
