1 Answers
Newly purchased motorcycles cannot be driven without license plates. Otherwise, 12 points will be deducted from the driver's license, and a fine will be imposed. However, there are two opportunities to apply for temporary license plates, each valid for 15 days. Applicants and scope for temporary license plates: When driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to the place of use, a temporary license plate must be applied for at the local vehicle management office where the vehicle was purchased. When transferring vehicle registration and after surrendering the official license plates, a temporary license plate must be applied for at the local vehicle management office to drive the vehicle back to the original location. The process and procedures for applying for temporary license plates include: The applicant must present a unit introduction letter, proof of vehicle origin, certificate of conformity, and other relevant documents (except for the introduction letter, which will be archived, the rest will be returned to the applicant) to the vehicle management office. During the application, the start and end locations of the vehicle's journey and the duration of the temporary license plate must be specified. After review by the management staff and inspection of the vehicle, temporary license plates will be issued, with the validity period and start and end locations signed. Method for affixing temporary license plates: Two temporary license plates must be affixed simultaneously. One should be affixed to the upper right corner of the front windshield inside the vehicle, in a position that does not obstruct the driver's view and cannot be covered by the compulsory insurance label. The other should be affixed to the upper left corner of the rear windshield inside the vehicle.
