What is the New Policy for Replacing Old License Plates with New Cars in Shenzhen?
2 Answers
Below is the new policy for replacing old license plates with new cars in Shenzhen, where subsidies can be claimed if the purchased vehicle meets the purchase conditions. The following are the specific materials required for replacing old license plates with new cars in Shenzhen: 1. Transfer registration of the old vehicle: Unified invoice for second-hand car sales (invoice copy); and the old motor vehicle registration certificate. 2. Scrapping of the old vehicle: Old motor vehicle registration certificate; Motor vehicle deregistration certificate (issued by the Vehicle Management Office of the Shenzhen Traffic Police Department); "Recycled Motor Vehicle Certificate" (issued by the vehicle scrapping and recycling agency). 3. New vehicle materials: Valid ID of the reward recipient (both front and back, must be within the validity period); Invoice copy of the "Unified Invoice for Motor Vehicle Sales" for the newly purchased vehicle (the invoice date must be on or after June 28, 2020); Driving license of the newly purchased vehicle (the registered owner of the new vehicle must be the same as the owner before the update, and both must have Guangdong B license plates).
As someone who has been driving in Shenzhen for over a decade, I find the new policy quite impressive. The old policy required multiple trips to the vehicle management office for license plate transfers, but now the process is simplified. Just upload the old car's scrapping certificate and new car purchase documents to the app, and approval is much faster. The key is updating the license plate to new energy vehicles, like electric or hybrid cars, which is both eco-friendly and cost-saving. I remember bringing my ID card, old car scrapping document, and new car invoice, and the system handled it automatically. This is much more convenient for frequent drivers like us, reducing the hassle of traffic jams and long queues. It feels like the government is encouraging vehicle upgrades to improve urban air quality. Always keep an eye on official public accounts so you don't miss out on opportunities.
