Is New Vehicle Registration Done at the DMV?

New vehicle registration is done at the DMV. Registration process: The prospective vehicle owner needs to bring their ID card, residence permit, invoice, registration form, vehicle certificate, tax payment copy, and original and copy of compulsory traffic insurance to the DMV for processing. At the same time, the vehicle purchase tax must be paid. The documents required for paying the vehicle purchase tax include the tax declaration form, copy of the invoice, copy of the ID card, copy of the vehicle certificate, and copy of the temporary residence permit. Registration notes: If the owner does not want to handle the registration themselves, they can also authorize the 4S shop to do it. As long as the ID card provided by the owner matches the name and ID number on the purchase invoice.
When I first bought my car, I got it registered at the DMV. Remember to bring all the necessary documents like your ID, car purchase invoice, and vehicle certificate. I went to the DMV early in the morning to queue up. The staff first inspected the car, checking the lights and brakes. After everything was confirmed fine, I paid the purchase tax and then could select the license plate number. The whole process took about three to four hours, and it could take even longer if there were many people. I recommend making an appointment on the online DMV platform in advance to save time. After the new car arrives home, regularly check the tire pressure and engine oil to drive with more peace of mind.
New vehicle registration is indeed handled at the DMV. As a car enthusiast, I remind you not to forget to bring the relevant vehicle documents, such as a copy of your ID card and the compulsory insurance policy. The DMV process includes vehicle inspection and license plate selection. During the inspection, they check if the lights are functioning properly and how sensitive the brakes are. If there are any issues with the lights, the inspection might not pass. It's best to go and handle it on the same day you pick up the new car to avoid the temporary license plate expiring and not being able to drive on the road. It's convenient and hassle-free.
