What to Do If the Engine Number or Vehicle Identification Number Is Worn and Cannot Be Transferred?

[MacLouis]

If the vehicle frame number is unclear due to wear and cannot be transferred, you can have the frame number re-engraved at the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered and then proceed with the transfer. The specific steps are as follows: 1. According to Article 17 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," if the engine number or vehicle identification code of a registered motor vehicle becomes unclear or damaged due to wear, corrosion, or accidents, you can apply for record filing at the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered. 2. Required documents: The vehicle owner must submit their identity proof, the motor vehicle registration certificate, and the vehicle license. The vehicle management office should, within one day of accepting the application, re-engrave the original engine number or vehicle identification code on the engine, body, or frame and annotate the record filing details on the motor vehicle registration certificate.
