Motorcycle formal license plates usually take about 15 days to process. Below is the relevant information for motorcycle license plate application: 1. Materials required: Vehicle sales invoice, vehicle whole-vehicle factory qualification certificate, "Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Compulsory Liability Insurance", 2 vehicle photos, original ID card (original residence permit). 2. Application process: Prepare the above materials and go to the local vehicle management office (or vehicle management squadron) to complete the new vehicle registration. 3. Notes: When taking photos, choose a 45-degree angle from the rear of the vehicle, and no additional exterior parts should be installed according to the manufacturer's whole-vehicle announcement.
I remember helping my nephew with his motorcycle license plate application last year, and the whole process took about a week. After purchasing the bike and receiving the invoice, we immediately went to the vehicle management office to submit the application. The required documents included the purchase invoice, a copy of the ID card, compulsory insurance policy, and the vehicle frame number inspection certificate. We arrived at 9 a.m. that day, and the inspection queue took about half an hour. After submission, the staff informed us that approval would take three to five working days. We actually received a text message notification to collect the plate four days later, and the collection process was quick with only a few people there—done in about ten minutes. However, if the documents are incomplete, you might need to make multiple trips, extending the process to over ten days. It's advisable to prepare all the necessary documents in advance and visit on a weekday morning to avoid peak hours. In the city, it usually takes an average of five to ten days to complete the process—just be patient.
