How to Obtain a Beijing License Plate?

[Archie]

Here is an introduction on how to obtain a Beijing license plate: 1. Lottery: Obtain qualification through the lottery system, which is the most legitimate way to get a license plate. 2. Leasing: Long-term or short-term leasing, but this is not allowed and carries certain risks. Since the vehicle indicator and the vehicle must belong to the same person, leasing requires the lessee to register the vehicle under the lessor's name, or the lessor to lease both the vehicle and the license plate to the lessee. Both methods involve risks, so it's best to avoid this option. 3. Transfer: Vehicle transfers are only allowed between spouses. Many people obtain license plates through fake marriages. However, new regulations in 2021 require that the marital relationship must last for at least one year before a vehicle transfer can occur. 4. Court Auction: Some license plates are auctioned off by the court, but you still need to have lottery qualification to participate. 5. Corporate License Plate: Vehicle indicators under a company name are considered company assets. You can obtain the indicator through company transfer, but this carries the risk of hidden company debts and liabilities.
