How Can Non-Locals Buy a Car in Beijing?
1 Answers
As long as the car is not registered with a Beijing license plate, you can purchase it with just your ID card. If you want to register it with a Beijing license plate, you must have records of paying medical insurance, pension contributions, and taxes in Beijing for three years. Before the 8th of each month, submit a car purchase application on the website or at the district/county government office. After qualifying, participate in the monthly lottery on the 26th. Tips for non-locals buying cars in Beijing are as follows: 1. Do your homework before purchasing: During preparation, identify and note the flaws and disadvantages of the car, then compare it with its competitors. Use the advantages of competing models to highlight the disadvantages of the car you want to buy during the negotiation process in Beijing, achieving the goal of bargaining. Common disadvantages of cars include issues with power, suspension, space, noise insulation, seats, and dashboard materials. 2. Stay interested but composed: Even if you are already interested in the car, don’t show it. If the salesperson senses that you are there to bargain, they may set a higher base price, preventing you from negotiating further.
