How Long Can a Temporary License Plate Be Used?
1 Answers
A temporary license plate can be used for a maximum of 90 days. The validity period of a temporary license plate for a new car ranges between 15, 30, and 90 days. For household vehicles, the temporary license plate is generally valid for 15 days, meaning the temporary license plate for a new car can be used for two weeks. After 15 days, if the official license plate has not been issued, the car owner must apply for a temporary license plate again, with a maximum of three applications allowed. To apply for a temporary license plate, the following documents must be prepared in advance: the buyer's ID card, purchase invoice, compulsory insurance policy (copy), and the vehicle's factory certificate. Copies of these four documents must also be brought along. Then, proceed to the DMV window to complete the application, fill out the form, submit the relevant materials, and after review, the temporary license plate can be issued.
