Do 50cc motorcycles need to be licensed?
2 Answers
Displacement equal to 50CC is classified as a moped and requires a blue license plate. Below are specific details about mopeds: 1. Introduction: A moped is a type of electric motorcycle that must meet various technical standards and legal requirements for motor vehicles. The released electric motorcycle standards are merely supplementary to the electric part of electric motorcycles. To be a qualified electric motorcycle, in addition to meeting the standards for electric motorcycles, it must also comply with the standards and legal requirements for ordinary motor vehicles. 2. Regulations: No individual or unit is allowed to assemble mopeds, nor can they modify bicycles into mopeds. To apply for a moped license, one must present the moped's certificate of conformity, purchase proof, third-party liability insurance proof, and unit certification to the local public security authority to complete the necessary procedures.
Just helped a friend with this issue a few days ago! A 50cc motorcycle is technically classified as a light motorcycle, and according to China's Road Traffic Law, it must be licensed to be ridden on the road. A blue license plate is sufficient, unlike the yellow plates for 125cc models. Required documents include the invoice, vehicle certification, ID card, and compulsory traffic insurance policy. A special reminder: many off-brand bikes from small manufacturers are not listed in the licensing directory. Make sure the certification can be verified in the vehicle management system before purchasing, otherwise, it can only be ridden illegally, and if caught, the bike will be impounded immediately.
