Is It Mandatory to Buy a New Car After Winning the Beijing License Plate Lottery?
1 Answers
Winning the Beijing license plate lottery does not necessarily require purchasing a new car; buying a used car is also an option. Below are the relevant requirements for non-local residents to participate in the Beijing car license plate lottery: 1. No registered vehicles: The individual must not have any small passenger vehicles registered in Beijing or any motor vehicles that should be scrapped but have not been deregistered. 2. Valid driver's license: The individual must hold a valid motor vehicle driver's license issued by the traffic management department of the public security bureau. 3. Residence permit or relevant proof: Non-local residents must either hold a valid "Beijing Work Residence Permit" or have a valid temporary residence permit and have continuously paid social insurance and personal income tax in Beijing for the past five years (inclusive). Meeting one of these two conditions is sufficient.
