How Long Must a New Car Be Licensed?
1 Answers
In principle, a new car must be registered within 30 days after purchase, but it must be licensed within the validity period of the invoice. A motor vehicle can only receive three temporary licenses, each valid for one month, so the licensing must be completed within three months; otherwise, the invoice will become void. Here are the key points to note regarding the licensing timeline for new cars: 1. After purchasing a new car, there is no strict national regulation specifying the exact timeframe for registration (licensing). However, it is subject to limitations based on national environmental policies and changes in vehicle announcements. 2. Domestic motor vehicles must comply with the announcements approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to be manufactured and sold. Before purchasing, buyers must verify whether the manufacturer has the necessary national announcement qualifications. If a car is not licensed for an extended period, the announcement may be canceled or altered. Once the announcement is canceled, the vehicle cannot be licensed. 3. If a new car is not licensed promptly and national environmental policies change, the engine may no longer meet local environmental regulations, potentially making it impossible to license the vehicle.
