Electric vehicles need to be registered within one month. If the purchased electric vehicle complies with the new national standards, it does not require registration. However, if it is a non-compliant or over-standard electric vehicle, it must be registered within the transition period specified by local regulations. Unregistered vehicles are not allowed on the road. The regulations for motor vehicle registration are as follows: 1. Vehicle Photography: The photographer will set up a number plate based on the last four digits of the vehicle identification number (VIN) and place it in the lower right corner of the windshield before taking photos. Before photography, the "CCC" sticker and the "Automobile Fuel Consumption Label" sticker on the windshield must be removed. It is advisable to complete this task before arriving at the vehicle management office, as these stickers are difficult to peel off. 2. Rubbing of Information: The rubbing process is usually conducted in the inspection area of the vehicle management office. Sometimes, the 4S shop may have already done the rubbing, but it is important to ensure that the number of rubbings is complete. For registration, two copies of the engine number and three copies of the VIN rubbing are required. 3. Vehicle Inspection: All self-branded vehicles are exempt from inspection. Non-exempt vehicles must undergo an "over-line" inspection, which includes tests for power, lighting, exhaust emissions, and braking. The vehicle inspection, professionally referred to as Motor Vehicle Safety Technical Inspection, serves as the primary technical basis for the traffic management department of the public security authorities in registering new vehicles, conducting regular inspections of in-use vehicles, and inspecting accident vehicles. It is commonly known as the major vehicle inspection.
