Is the vehicle license handled at the 4S store when buying a new car?
2 Answers
When purchasing a new car, the vehicle license can be processed at the 4S store. Below is relevant information about the vehicle license: 1. Introduction: The motor vehicle license is the legal document permitting a motor vehicle to drive on roads within China. The license consists of three parts: the document, main page, and supplementary page. The front of the main page contains the endorsed certificate core, while the back features a photo of the vehicle, all sealed in a plastic cover. 2. Main Page: The text on the front of the main page is in black. The phrase 'People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle License' is in 12pt bold font, centered. Other texts include 'License Plate Number', 'Vehicle Type', 'Usage Nature', 'Owner', 'Address', 'Brand Model', 'Engine Number', 'Vehicle Identification Number', 'Registration Date', and 'Issue Date'. 3. Supplementary Page: The text on the front of the supplementary page is also in black. It includes 'License Plate Number', 'Approved Passenger Capacity', 'File Number', 'Curb Weight', 'Gross Weight', 'Approved Load Capacity', 'Overall Dimensions', 'Permitted Towing Gross Weight', 'Remarks', and 'Inspection Record'.
To be honest, I just bought a car, and the vehicle license matter made me a little nervous. When I purchased the car, I asked the salesperson, and they said the 4S dealership could handle all the procedures related to the vehicle license, including submitting documents and processing the DMV application. The whole process went smoothly—the salesperson helped me fill out some forms and even scheduled an appointment with the DMV, saving me a lot of legwork. However, the vehicle license is ultimately issued by the DMV; the 4S dealership just acted as an intermediary to submit my documents. Now, after driving the new car for a few months, I got the vehicle license pretty quickly—I remember it only took three or four days. If you opt for the 4S dealership service when buying a car, it can save a lot of hassle, but it’s best to clarify the fees upfront to avoid extra costs. With a busy work schedule, I don’t have time to deal with trivial matters, so this one-stop service was a huge help.
