What to Do If Your Vehicle License Plate is Cloned?

[SanReid]

Here are the steps to take if your vehicle license plate is cloned: 1. Gather evidence that the vehicle owner was not present at the scene. 2. Visit the traffic police department to verify the violation information. 3. Submit an appeal to the traffic management department. 4. Apply for a replacement of the vehicle license plate number. Here are the legal bases: 1. If the motor vehicle license plate or registration certificate is lost, missing, or damaged, the vehicle owner must apply for a replacement or reissuance at the local vehicle management office. When applying, the vehicle owner must fill out an application form and submit proof of identity. 2. The vehicle management office shall review the submitted proofs and documents, retrieve the license plate or registration certificate that is not lost, missing, or damaged, reissue or replace the registration certificate within one day from the date of acceptance, and reissue or replace the license plate within fifteen days from the date of acceptance, with the original license plate number remaining unchanged. During the period of reissuance or replacement of the license plate, a temporary license plate valid for no more than fifteen days shall be issued.
