How to Get a Temporary License Plate for a New Car?

[Pamela]

If you are applying for a temporary license plate during the vehicle registration process, the staff will provide you with a temporary plate before the official one is issued. If you are applying for a temporary license plate separately, you need to prepare the following documents in advance: ID card, car purchase invoice, compulsory traffic insurance policy (copy), and vehicle manufacturing certificate, and then visit the local vehicle management office to complete the procedure. Below are the relevant details: 1. A temporary license plate is a provisional vehicle driving permit issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau when a car has not yet been officially registered due to pending procedures. 2. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," vehicles must display license plates as required when driving on the road. Failure to do so will result in penalties. However, before obtaining the official license plate, you must apply for a temporary license plate in accordance with regulations to legally drive on the road.
