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

[EllieLee]

If your vehicle's license plate is lost, it's best to call 110, or you can also call 122. You cannot drive the vehicle on the road without the license plate as it violates China's traffic safety laws. Continuing to drive poses certain risks, so you should apply for a replacement plate as soon as possible. If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display a license plate, inspection sticker, insurance sticker, or if the driver does not carry the vehicle registration certificate or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security authority will impound the vehicle and notify the party to provide the corresponding plates, stickers, or complete the necessary procedures. Motor vehicle license plate display regulations: When driving a motor vehicle on the road, the vehicle must display a license plate, inspection sticker, and insurance sticker, and the driver must carry the vehicle registration certificate. The license plate must be displayed clearly and completely as required, without intentional obstruction or damage. No organization or individual may confiscate or withhold a motor vehicle license plate. Procedure for replacing a license plate: Report the lost license plate at the local police station where it was lost and obtain a certificate of loss. Prepare the required materials and fill out the appropriate forms at the vehicle management office. Original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's ID. If an agent is handling the process, the agent must also submit their original ID, photocopy, and a written authorization from the vehicle owner. The applicant submits the "Motor Vehicle License and Certificate Application Form," ID, and other required documents to the service window at the vehicle management office. The remaining plate (if any) will be collected, and the applicant will receive an acceptance receipt and pay the fee. The applicant takes the acceptance receipt and payment receipt to the service hall to receive a temporary license plate, which should be prominently displayed on the vehicle's front windshield. After ten working days, the applicant can exchange the temporary plate for the new license plate at the designated installation location and have it mounted.
