What is the difference between Jing A and Jing B motorcycle licenses in Beijing?

[DelElias]

The differences between Jing A and Jing B motorcycle licenses in Beijing are as follows: 1. Different application conditions: To apply for a Jing A motorcycle license in Beijing, the conditions are: Beijing residents must provide their ID card; non-Beijing residents must provide their ID card and temporary residence permit. Purchase a motorcycle with a Jing A license plate and transfer it to your name. Purchase an imported vehicle registered with the Environmental Protection Bureau and cleared by customs to proceed with the application. For Jing B, only individuals with household registration outside Beijing's four central districts and non-locals with a temporary residence permit can purchase. Those within the four central districts can only register the vehicle under a company name or someone else's name. 2. Different issuance status: After 1996, the issuance of Jing A motorcycle license plates was suspended until 2018 when it resumed, but in limited quantities, while Jing B has been continuously issued.
