Yes, the old license plate number can still be used when buying a new car. As long as the conditions for retaining the original plate are met, you can apply to the counter staff to use the original plate when registering a newly purchased vehicle (either a new car or a used car). Five conditions for retaining the original plate: The license plate must be under the same owner, meaning the two vehicles must belong to the same person; The registration location must be the same; The type of license plate must be the same, meaning a yellow plate can only be replaced with another yellow plate, a blue plate with another blue plate, and a green plate with another green plate; The vehicle must be non-commercial, meaning only private household vehicles can be replaced; commercial vehicles like taxis cannot be replaced; For plates that have undergone a swap, you must wait one year before applying for another swap or to retain the original plate number. Steps for installing a vehicle license plate: Screw all the mounting points for the plate with the screw components; Once the plate is in the correct position, tighten all the screws; Align the cap with the gasket, press it down, and secure it in place.
