1 Answers
Temporary license plates are valid for no more than thirty days. A temporary license plate is a paper motor vehicle license plate that permits temporary road use of a motor vehicle, also known as a temporary driving license plate. It serves as a provisional vehicle driving permit issued by the local vehicle management department of the public security bureau for newly purchased vehicles before official registration. There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary plates for administrative jurisdictions, cross-administrative jurisdiction temporary plates, temporary plates for testing purposes, and temporary plates for special-type motor vehicles. The use of temporary plates is time-limited and region-specific. You can apply for a temporary license plate at the local vehicle management office under any of the following conditions: 1. When returning from the vehicle purchase location to the place of use, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the purchase location's vehicle management office; 2. When transferring vehicle registration, after surrendering the official license plate, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the local vehicle management office before returning to your home location; 3. For a new vehicle in the local area that has not yet obtained an official license plate but needs to be modified in another location, you must apply for a temporary license plate locally, complete the modifications, and then apply for a temporary license plate at the modification location to return to the original area; 4. When purchasing a vehicle locally and planning to travel to another location, you need to apply for a temporary license plate locally; 5. If you do not have a fixed vehicle registration and need to test the vehicle temporarily.
