What is the difference between license plate replacement and reissuance on 12123?
2 Answers
Here are the differences between license plate replacement and reissuance on 12123: Different license plate numbers: Reissuance means obtaining the same license plate number without any changes. Replacement means getting a new license plate number that differs from the original one. Registration: Reissuance is chosen when the license plate is lost, and registration is required. Replacement is selected when the license plate is damaged, and while no registration is needed, the old plate must be surrendered. In both cases, once the application is submitted, the process is considered completed and cannot be canceled. Failure to comply will result in being blacklisted, suspending online vehicle and driver's license services.
As a long-time driver, I find that there's quite a difference between license plate replacement and reissuance on the 12123 platform. Reissuance is when your plate is lost or damaged, and you need to quickly get a new one with the same number—like if your car is stolen or wrecked, you must promptly apply in the system by uploading photos. Replacement, on the other hand, is for updating plates when they expire or changing plates when switching cars, where the number may or may not stay the same—it's routine maintenance. I once helped a friend with it on 12123; reissuance is more urgent and may require extra forms, while replacement is simpler, just needing a scheduled time. The platform processes it fast, done in three to five days, saving you a trip to the DMV. I suggest everyone understand the difference to avoid delays. Always park carefully and guard against theft to prevent the hassle of reissuance.
