Last time I applied for a Shenzhen license plate lottery, I found the process simple but requiring patience. You first need to register an account on the official website of Shenzhen Passenger Car Quota Regulation Management Information System, filling in your name, ID number, and contact details. Non-local residents also need to provide proof of residence. After submission, there's a monthly lottery draw with a low success rate, so multiple attempts are often needed. I waited four months before succeeding, while a friend tried for six months without luck. A reminder: prepare materials like a copy of your driver's license in advance to avoid errors affecting eligibility. If you win, you must complete the license plate procedures within 15 days, or the result becomes invalid. The lottery for new energy vehicles is easier, as the government encourages eco-friendly options and gives them priority. Overall, it's quite convenient but time-consuming and requires persistence.
