The process for a 4S shop to handle new car license plate registration on behalf of the owner is: 1. The car owner pays the license plate registration fee to the 4S shop; 2. The 4S shop collects all the necessary documents for registration and drives the car to the vehicle management office to complete the registration process; 3. If the license plate number is selected online in advance, the car owner does not need to go to the vehicle management office. If the on-site selection method is used, the car owner will go to the vehicle management office with the staff to choose the number; 4. After the staff completes the license plate registration, the newly licensed car is delivered to the owner, along with the vehicle's driving license and vehicle registration certificate. The method for installing the license plate is: 1. Take out the screws for the license plate and insert them into the anti-theft caps; 2. Position the license plate correctly, align the screws with the gaps on the bumper, and secure them with tools; 3. Cover the anti-theft caps and press them into place.
Last time I bought a car, I chose to have the 4S dealership handle the license plate registration for me, and the whole process was super convenient, saving me the hassle of running around myself. I first handed over my original ID card and copies, the car purchase invoice, and the vehicle qualification certificate to the salesperson, and they started processing. The first step was paying the vehicle purchase tax, which could usually be completed right at the dealership. Then they helped me purchase compulsory traffic insurance and commercial insurance if I hadn’t bought them in advance. After that, they scheduled a vehicle inspection time—I had to drive the new car to the DMV for checks on the exterior, VIN, etc., but with the salesperson guiding me, I didn’t have to worry about queuing. After the inspection, I could choose a license plate. The salesperson taught me to use a mobile app to pick a number myself, and I chose one that was easy to remember, saving time and effort. The whole process took just a day or two, and I only paid a small service fee, but the time and ease it gave me were totally worth it. A reminder: make sure all your documents are complete, like your household registration or residence permit, as missing even one can delay things. This service is great for people like me who dislike hassle, especially if you’re too busy on weekdays.
