After confirming the registration on 12123 and going to the vehicle management office, you can usually receive the license plate in about three days. The following are the precautions for selecting a license plate for a new car: 1. Validity period of pre-selected license plate: After successfully pre-selecting a license plate, the license plate number will be reserved for three working days from the next day (extended on holidays and public holidays). If the registration is not completed within the time limit, the selected license plate will be invalid and you will be prohibited from selecting a license plate online again. Vehicles that have successfully selected a license plate number are prohibited from selecting a license plate or modifying information online again. 2. Information entry requirements: The owner of the vehicle must accurately enter the ID number, vehicle identification code and other relevant information, and carefully check it. If the entered information does not match the relevant certificates, the selected license plate will be invalid. 3. Print the pre-selected license plate voucher: The owner of the vehicle can print the pre-selected license plate voucher after successfully selecting the license plate. When registering, you need to inform the accepting officer that you have selected a license plate online and submit the pre-selected license plate voucher. If the printing is not successful when selecting the license plate, you can log in again to print.
I remember getting my license plates within about three days after confirming the vehicle registration through the Traffic Management 12123 app right after buying the car. That day, as soon as I received the app notification saying the registration was complete, I rushed to the DMV to pick up the plates. The staff mentioned that in most places nowadays, if processing is fast, you can get them the same day or the next day. The key factor is whether you opt for self-pickup or mail delivery—like me living in a small city, self-pickup saved time and hassle. In big cities or during peak periods, it might take four to five days, so it’s best to keep an eye on the app’s progress updates to avoid missing anything. Don’t forget to bring your original ID card and confirmation slip when picking up the plates to prevent a wasted trip. Also, install the plates as soon as possible to avoid fines if checked on the road. Overall, no need to rush—just wait patiently for a few days, and it’ll be sorted.
