What number should I call to report a lost license plate?

If your car license plate is lost, it is best to call 110, or you can also call 122. Here is some information about license plates: Introduction: License plates, commonly known as vehicle plates, are panels hung on the front and rear of a vehicle. Material: The materials commonly used are aluminum, iron, plastic, or paper, on which the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information is engraved. Function: License plates serve as a numbering and information registration system for vehicles. Their main purpose is to identify the region to which the vehicle belongs, and they can also be used to trace the vehicle's owner and registration information.
Last time I accidentally lost my license plate, and I panicked at first, but immediately remembered that I needed to report it to the police quickly. In China, if you lose your license plate, you should call 110 right away to report it, because the police can help you register the case and prevent others from picking it up and using your vehicle for illegal activities. When reporting, it’s best to prepare your license plate number, vehicle model, and the location where it was lost so the police can handle it faster. After reporting, don’t forget to go to the local DMV to apply for a replacement plate. Bring your ID card and vehicle registration—it usually takes one or two weeks to get it done. Honestly, this kind of thing shouldn’t be delayed. If someone uses your plate for illegal activities, you’ll be the one in trouble. Checking that your plate is secure before each drive can reduce the risk of losing it. I learned a lot from that experience and wanted to share it with everyone—stay calm and act quickly when something like this happens.
