Can the temporary license plate still be used on the 16th if it expires on the 16th?

A temporary license plate that expires on the 16th can still be used on the 16th; you are allowed to drive with it on the expiration day. Penalties for exceeding the validity period: New vehicles using temporary license plates must not exceed 15 days. Owners should promptly apply for official license plates from the vehicle management authority. After expiration, penalties may include vehicle impoundment, fines, and a deduction of 12 points from the driver's license. Methods to register after the temporary license plate expires: Towing: Tow the vehicle to the vehicle management office for registration, but this method can be costly. If official license plates are not issued on the same day, the owner would need to tow the vehicle back home, making this method not recommended. Reapplying for a temporary license plate: Temporary license plates are generally valid for 15 days. Owners should apply for official license plates within the temporary license's validity period. If the temporary license plate expires and official plates have not yet been issued, reapplying for a temporary license plate is the most cost-effective method. However, temporary license plates can only be applied for a maximum of three times.
