How long does it take for the information on 12123 to update after vehicle transfer?

After the vehicle transfer, the update of indicators generally takes three to four days, with a six-month deadline for license plate registration. Definition of Vehicle Transfer: Vehicle transfer refers to the change of the vehicle owner's name. Principle of Vehicle Transfer: Every vehicle has a fixed household registration, which mainly records the vehicle owner, address, and some relevant vehicle parameters. The transfer of a vehicle proves that the vehicle belongs to the new owner and has no accidents or violations. If there are issues with the vehicle, such as accidents, failure to participate in annual inspections, stolen vehicles, or smuggled vehicles, the transfer cannot be processed through normal procedures. Definition of Vehicle Relocation: Vehicle relocation refers to the registration process required when a vehicle is moved from one city to another, involving a change in the vehicle management authority. Vehicle relocation requires the replacement of license plates and the vehicle registration certificate, and the procedures must be completed at two different vehicle management authorities, including the transfer-out procedure and the transfer-in procedure.
Last time I just finished the vehicle transfer process, I remember seeing the information update quite quickly on 12123, usually within a day or two. Since 12123 is the online platform of the traffic management system, data synchronization relies on backend processes. After the transfer procedures are completed, the vehicle management office uploads the new data, and it reflects in the system once processed. However, based on my experience, occasional delays of three to five days might occur during peak periods or due to network issues. I recommend checking the app the day after the transfer. If it hasn’t updated yet, don’t worry—just wait a bit longer. Additionally, make sure all documents are submitted correctly during the transfer to speed up synchronization and avoid rework. The platform also allows you to check traffic violation records, which is quite convenient. Keeping an eye on this can also help with vehicle maintenance.
