How Many Days After New Energy Vehicle Information Confirmation to Get License Plates?
3 Answers
License plates are issued 7 days after new energy vehicle information confirmation. The documents required for new vehicle license plate registration include: 1. Original and copy of the identity proof of the vehicle owner. 2. Original certificate of conformity for domestically produced vehicles or original import certificate for imported vehicles. 3. Original proof of vehicle origin, including the purchase invoice. 4. Original third copy of the compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate. 5. Original vehicle purchase tax payment certificate or tax exemption certificate. Information about new energy vehicles is as follows: 1. New energy vehicles: These refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new on-board power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive systems, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. 2. Classification: New energy vehicles include four major types: hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), battery electric vehicles (BEV, including solar-powered vehicles), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV), and other new energy vehicles (such as those using supercapacitors, flywheels, and other high-efficiency energy storage devices).
I remember the new energy vehicle license plate registration process is quite fast. After information confirmation, it can usually be completed within 7 days. When I bought a new car last year, the vehicle management office verified the invoice, certificate of conformity, and insurance policy, and notified me to select a license plate number on the third day. However, there are two things to be careful about: first, avoid going to handle the business on Friday afternoon, as system delays might push it to the next week; second, don’t forget to pay the purchase tax in advance through the tax mini-program (even though electric vehicles are tax-exempt, the process still needs to be followed). Incomplete documents will directly delay the progress. Also, remember to print two extra temporary license plates to avoid trouble with traffic police before the formal registration.
The process for new energy vehicles is simpler than for gasoline cars, and can be completed in as little as 3 days. I accompanied a friend to handle it: in the morning, we went to the DMV for vehicle inspection and photos, the system review was approved in the afternoon, and the license plate was mailed out the next day. The key factor is how busy the DMV is—small cities might issue the license the next day, while in big cities, queuing could take up to 5 working days. Special reminder: Confirm the environmental protection catalog in advance on the 12123 app. Nowadays, electric vehicles require separate verification of the battery code—missing this step might result in a wasted trip. If the 4S shop is handling it for you, it's best to urge them daily to submit the materials.
