How Many Days Can a Beijing Entry Permit Be Valid?

[DeTaylor]

For vehicles with out-of-town license plates, the maximum validity period for a Beijing entry permit is 7 days. One day before expiration, on the expiration day, or one day after expiration, you can apply for a 5-day extension at the local traffic police detachment. After the 12-day period, if you still need a Beijing entry permit, you must go to a comprehensive inspection station at the city entrance to reapply for a new 7-day permit. This cycle can be repeated. Additional Information: 1. If you drive within the Fifth Ring Road without a Beijing entry permit, you will face a fine of 100 yuan and a deduction of 3 points. 2. If your vehicle has non-on-site violations captured by traffic cameras while driving in Beijing with an entry permit, you must resolve these violations before applying for a new permit. This includes violations of the tail number restriction policy, which can also be captured by surveillance cameras, with the same penalties applied to out-of-town vehicles. 3. If you are in the process of leaving the city, leniency is usually granted, but if you stay beyond the permitted period, penalties for driving without a valid permit will apply.
