How long after purchasing a new car can it be registered on 12123?

Generally, a newly purchased car should be registered on the 12123 platform within 3 months. If this period is exceeded, a certain late fee must be paid according to regulations. Once the license plate is obtained, the car can be directly registered. After completing the license plate registration, the owner can directly bind the vehicle information on the Traffic Management 12123 APP. Below are the relevant details: Registration review time: The review process may take up to 7 working days, with a maximum of 15 days, depending on the number of registration applications being processed. Solutions if registration fails: Deactivate the Traffic Management 12123 account; then re-register the account and select the region consistent with the vehicle's registration certificate; apply again for the new car registration. This is because vehicle management in each region is handled by the local Vehicle Management Office (VMO), and vehicle records are stored there. For example, a car registered in Guangzhou is managed by the Guangzhou VMO, and its records are kept there. If the Guangxi VMO does not have the vehicle's records, it cannot register the new car or handle other related procedures.

I just got my new car last month and have thoroughly researched this matter. Now, new cars must be registered in the 12123 system within 24 hours of receiving the purchase invoice, but the actual process completion requires an inspection by the vehicle management office. According to the new traffic regulations, starting from the day you drive out of the 4S store, you must complete all procedures for the registration certificate and license plate within 30 days. I went to the vehicle management office to queue on the third day after picking up my car, only to see someone being fined 200 yuan for dragging on until their temporary license expired. My advice is not to rush into decorating your car after getting the invoice. Instead, keep the reflective vest and warning triangle needed for inspection ready in the trunk.

Last time when I accompanied my buddy to register his new car, I realized there were quite a few details to pay attention to. The vehicle management office told me that everything is electronic now. After scanning the vehicle certificate into the system, it automatically syncs to the 12123 platform within 48 hours. But be aware that temporary license plates can only be used for a maximum of 15 days. My friend trusted the salesperson's advice that 'you can register within a month,' but ended up getting caught by traffic cameras for driving with an expired temporary plate. If it happens to be during holidays, you need to call 12123 in advance to report and apply for an extension. Just fill out an extension request in the system to avoid trouble.

When looking at cars, the salesperson repeatedly reminded me: New vehicle license plate registration is now instantly connected to the network. The system can retrieve the information two hours after paying the purchase tax, but completing the filing requires waiting for the DMV to verify the vehicle identification number (VIN) imprint. My experience was getting the car inspected on Tuesday afternoon, and by Thursday morning, the filing information was available on the 12123 app. Remember two key timelines: Temporary license plates are valid for 15 days, and the production cycle for official license plates is 5 business days. Don’t be like my neighbor who waited until the last day of the temporary plate validity to go, only to face a long queue for vehicle inspection.

Just finished handling the new vehicle file and here are the key points: The vehicle owner's information is automatically transmitted to the traffic management system within 24 hours, but the update of the filing status requires on-site inspection. Last week, when accompanying my wife for the vehicle inspection, we found that vehicles manufactured over 30 days ago need to undergo a tail gas re-inspection first (excluding new energy vehicles). It is recommended to go for inspection on Tuesdays or Wednesdays when there are fewer people, and the filing status is usually displayed as archived on the 12123 platform within 48 hours. For peace of mind, it's advisable to let the vehicle management office issue an acceptance voucher to keep in the car after the inspection.
