How many days does it usually take for the license plate to be delivered?

If the vehicle owner chooses to receive the license plate by mail, the formal license plate will generally be delivered within 3-5 days under normal circumstances. Summary of vehicle license plates: A vehicle license plate is a hard-coded number plate with a registration code issued by the vehicle management authority after reviewing, inspecting, and registering the vehicle that has applied for the license plate, as stipulated by national vehicle management regulations, with a unified format and style. The role of vehicle license plates: The vehicle license is issued by the vehicle management authority, recording the main contents of the vehicle's initial registration. It is kept by the owner and carried with the vehicle as a unified format registration book for recording changes and inspections at any time. According to the "Road Traffic Management Regulations," the vehicle license plate and the vehicle license are the legal documents that permit the vehicle to drive on the road.

I've been driving for several years and have plenty of experience with license plate processing. Generally, after completing the license plate application, it takes 7 to 15 working days to be delivered from the DMV to your home. In big cities like Beijing or Shanghai, the process is faster, possibly completed within a week. However, in more remote areas such as mountainous regions or small towns, two weeks is quite common. During holiday peak logistics periods, especially around the Spring Festival, the delivery can take even longer. I recommend asking the staff for the courier tracking number right after completing the procedures, then track it using mobile apps like SF Express or EMS's official website. My last delivery took 9 days, which went smoothly. Make sure your address is written clearly; otherwise, if it's returned and resent, it can be a real hassle. Weather conditions shouldn't be overlooked either—heavy rain or snow can delay delivery by a day or two. Once you receive the license plate, check for any damage and install it on your car promptly. Be patient and don't rush; on average, it should arrive within about 10 days.

Last week I took some time to get my license plate done. Since I'm busy with work, I wanted to get it quickly. The delivery time is usually 7 to 15 days, depending on the mailing distance. It can arrive within a week in the city center, but it takes longer in the suburbs or other regions. This time it took me 9 days, which was okay. Don’t worry too much while waiting—just check the logistics status on your phone. I suggest keeping the DMV’s phone number handy in case you need to call and ask about any issues. Just make sure you don’t fill in the wrong address. Prepare the tools for installation in advance so you can set it up as soon as it arrives. Overall, about a week is normal, just don’t wait until the peak season to get it done.

I just bought a car, and receiving the license plate is a minor matter. It usually arrives within 7 days, but I've heard it can take up to 15 days at most. It's slower for more remote locations. I received mine in 8 days. Tracking the logistics online is quite convenient. Don't forget to check if the license plate number matches. Applying early saves you from waiting.
