Does changing license plates under one's own name count as a transfer of ownership?

[Kieran]

Changing license plates under one's own name does not count as a transfer of ownership. Only when the name on the vehicle registration certificate is changed to the new owner does it constitute a transfer of ownership. Below are the specific details regarding motor vehicle registration: 1. Legal Basis: Article 18 states that when the ownership of a registered motor vehicle is transferred, the current owner must apply for a transfer of registration at the local vehicle management office within 30 days from the date of delivery. Before applying for the transfer of registration, the current owner must resolve all traffic violations and accidents related to the vehicle. 2. Procedures: To apply for a transfer of registration, the current owner must fill out an application form, present the vehicle for inspection, and submit the current owner's identity proof, proof of ownership transfer, the vehicle registration certificate, and the vehicle registration card.
