2021 license plate new regulations have been confirmed. The 2021 urban license plate policy new regulations are as follows: 1. License plate: Vehicles that have been used for one year can retain the original license plate, and the retention period can be up to 1 year. This provides conditions for many car owners who want to change cars but are reluctant to give up their original license plates. 2. Transfer: The new regulations also stipulate that the original license plate can be retained when the vehicle is transferred, cancelled, or relocated. Currently, the vehicle license plate follows the person, not the car, and cannot be transferred with the car, let alone transfer the license plate alone. In the past, due to insufficiently strict management, there were cases of private resale of license plates, which are now explicitly prohibited. However, the new regulations now stipulate that whether you buy a used car or a new car, the original license plate can be applied for retention, which also provides everyone with more choices.
The 2021 new license plate regulations have indeed been finalized. I've checked a lot of information online, and the specific details were announced late last year. The main change is that the license plate number has been increased from five digits to six digits, which expands the combination capacity to cope with the rapid growth in the number of vehicles. New energy vehicles use exclusive green license plates, marked with D or F, highlighting their clean energy characteristics. The implementation date is December 27, 2021, and it is uniformly enforced nationwide. The benefits include reducing license plate cloning issues and making it easier for traffic management cameras to identify vehicles. However, the transition period is a bit troublesome—old license plates can still be used for a while, but new vehicles or transfers must adopt the new format. It's recommended to complete the procedures early by bringing your ID card and vehicle documents to the vehicle management office. Overall, this is a positive move that promotes road safety.
