How Long Does It Take to Get the License Plate After Vehicle Transfer?

Vehicle transfer procedures can be completed on the same day, but it usually takes about a week to get the license plate. If all the documents are complete, local transfer can be completed in one day. For inter-regional transfers, the vehicle's dimensional files need to be extracted, which generally takes 7 working days to complete. After receiving the vehicle, the staff at the vehicle management office will first inspect the vehicle and then take photos of it. During the inspection, the vehicle's exhaust, lights, horn, chassis, and other related components will be checked to ensure the vehicle's safety. Then, the staff will extend the vehicle's number, take photos, and issue an inspection report and other procedures. The entire inspection process usually takes just a few minutes. After the vehicle inspection is completed, the vehicle's past violations will be checked. After receiving the vehicle inspection report, you need to go to the service window to collect the previously taken photos, paste them on the inspection report, and then check for any violation records at the violation query machine in the service hall (if there are violations, you need to pay the fines). If all the above steps are completed successfully, the staff will issue a transfer ticket, then the transfer invoice, and collect the transfer fee. The corresponding fees are charged according to the unified standards of the vehicle management office. The transfer registration, which is the usual transfer process, generally needs to be completed at the vehicle management office where the original vehicle's files are kept. However, some trading markets can handle the transfer and filing on your behalf. After completing the transfer procedures, the new owner can choose a license plate number and receive the new registration certificate, driving license, and other documents on the spot. The license plate will usually be received in about a week, during which the vehicle management office will issue a temporary license plate for the vehicle to use.
