What is the process for transferring ownership and changing license plates for a used car?

Enter the license plate number and the last six digits of the VIN to check the accident records. If there are unresolved traffic accidents, the vehicle can be sold but the transfer cannot be processed. After arriving at the transfer hall, present the relevant documents to receive an old motor vehicle sales contract, and both parties fill in the information separately.

I just helped my dad complete the car ownership transfer. The first step is to prepare all the required materials, including the original owner's ID card, vehicle license, and the big green book (registration certificate)—none of these can be missed. Both parties agreed on a time to visit the DMV, where the staff first verified the VIN and engine number, then issued the transaction invoice. After paying the purchase tax and transfer fees, it was time to select a new license plate. My heart raced during the '50-to-1' random selection on the machine, and I ended up with a lucky number featuring '688.' The new plates will arrive by mail in three days, so we're using a temporary plate in the meantime. The entire process took about two hours. The key is to check the required documents list on the 12123 app beforehand to avoid unnecessary trips.
