What documents are needed for car registration?
1 Answers
The required documents include: vehicle certification, purchase invoice, and compulsory traffic insurance policy (commercial insurance can be purchased after registration). In Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, proof of vehicle purchase quota is also required. Before going to the vehicle management office for registration, you should make three copies of your ID card, temporary residence permit (if any), vehicle certification, purchase invoice, and compulsory traffic insurance policy for backup. The process for new car registration is as follows: 1. Obtain the vehicle certification: The vehicle certification is very important and is required for registration. Currently, some car 4S stores delay providing the vehicle certification, which may postpone the registration. Therefore, you should communicate with the 4S store frequently and firmly to obtain the certification as soon as possible. 2. Keep the triplicate purchase invoice: After purchasing the car, the 4S store will issue a triplicate purchase invoice. Be sure to keep it safe as it will be needed for subsequent registration. The invoice has red, yellow, and blue copies. Generally, the red and yellow copies need to be submitted, while the yellow copy should be kept by yourself. 3. Pay the vehicle purchase tax and obtain the tax certificate: After purchasing the car, you should pay the vehicle purchase tax as soon as possible. You can usually do this at the nearest vehicle management office. After successfully paying the tax, you will receive the tax certificate, which should be kept safe. 4. Prepare various documents: Prepare the original ID card and copies (make several copies for backup). Non-local residents need to provide the original and copies of the temporary residence permit (organizations need to provide the original and copies of the organization code certificate). 5. Register and inspect the vehicle at the vehicle management office: Once all the procedures are complete, you can go to the vehicle management office to apply for a license plate. First, a specialized traffic police officer will inspect the vehicle, mainly checking the vehicle identification code, appearance, and warning triangle. Prepare these in advance. 6. Choose the vehicle license plate number: After the inspection, you can go to the vehicle management office hall to select a license plate number. Generally, there are two options: self-selection and random selection. Additionally, most regions now offer online license plate selection. 7. Pay the fee and wait for the license plate: After selecting the number, pay the fee and wait for the license plate. It usually takes three to five working days to receive the license plate.
