What materials are needed to replace a temporary license plate with a formal one?

[Megan]

Temporary license plates must be replaced with formal ones after paying the purchase tax and compulsory traffic insurance. Then, take the vehicle invoice and certificate of conformity to the vehicle management office to register and select a license plate. The process varies by location. In some places, you will receive a receipt with the license plate number, and you can use this receipt along with the vehicle license to proceed. If no receipt is provided, take the temporary license plate and vehicle license to collect the formal one. A temporary vehicle license plate is a provisional driving permit issued by the vehicle management department of the public security bureau when a car has not yet been formally registered due to pending procedures. Temporary license plates have time and regional limitations. You can apply for a temporary license plate from the local vehicle management office under any of the following conditions: When driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to the place of use, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the vehicle management office where the vehicle was purchased. When transferring vehicle registration and after surrendering the formal license plate, you need to apply for a temporary license plate at the local vehicle management office to drive back to your locality. The validity period of a temporary license plate is typically 7 days, though some may be valid for 15 days. If the temporary license plate expires, it becomes invalid.
