Generally, it takes 5-7 days to get the license plate after vehicle inspection. After the inspection, the owner can go to the new vehicle service hall to complete the relevant license plate registration procedures. The specific time required depends on the region and the flow of people. In some regions with high efficiency and fewer license plate registration users, the license plate can be obtained on the same day, as the production of the license plate only takes half an hour. The following are the precautions for license plate registration: 1. Vehicle certificate is required for license plate registration: When registering the license plate at the vehicle management office, the vehicle certificate needs to be submitted to the staff for archiving. 2. Purchase invoice is required for license plate registration: Whether you buy a car from a 4S store or a car trade company, you will receive a purchase invoice after the purchase. This invoice must be kept properly, as the car cannot be registered without it. When registering the license plate, the purchase invoice needs to be given to the staff at the vehicle management office, and this invoice also needs to be archived.
When I just finished my vehicle inspection, it took about ten days for the license plate to be delivered to my home. This kind of thing really depends on the specific location and processing efficiency. I remember it was during the peak period at the end of the year, the DMV was packed with people, and I got a temporary paper license plate to stick on, which was valid for about 30 days. During this period, driving was completely normal. In big cities, it might be faster, maybe done in three to five days, while in small towns, it could drag on for two weeks. I suggest you verify the mailing address on the day of the inspection to avoid mistakes, otherwise, redoing it would take even longer. By the way, if the weather is good and the postal service is smooth, the time might be shortened, but in winter with heavy snow, you might have to wait longer. In short, don’t be too anxious, just plan your time a bit earlier.
