What does smuggled vehicle mean?
1 Answers
Smuggled vehicles refer to foreign vehicles that enter the country through illegal channels, primarily to evade high tariffs. Here is some relevant information about smuggled vehicles: 1. Typically, smuggled vehicles are priced very cheaply, but they usually lack proper documentation because they enter through illegal means, so vehicle management authorities do not issue normal registration procedures. 2. Some smuggled vehicles may have normal documentation, mostly from customs-confiscated and auctioned stock, while a small portion may obtain registration through strong connections. If caught, the vehicles will be confiscated, and the offenders will be charged with smuggling. 3. Smuggled vehicles cannot be legally registered or licensed in the country, so fake license plates are often used to drive them on the road. 4. Since they cannot provide legal proof of ownership, if caught, the owners usually do not go to the traffic police department for processing. According to regulations, if the driver, owner, or manager of a seized vehicle fails to provide legal proof within 30 days, does not complete the necessary procedures, or does not come forward to accept processing, the vehicle will be dealt with accordingly.
