What to Do When the Vehicle Model Always Shows as Inconsistent When Applying for a Beijing Entry Permit?
3 Answers
The reasons for the inconsistency in vehicle information when applying for a Beijing entry permit may be: 1. The application for the Beijing entry permit is still under review: The review process generally takes 24 hours, and there may be cases where some non-local vehicle owner information cannot be approved. 2. System error message, it is recommended to apply offline: If the mobile application shows that the permit has not been processed or has not been successfully processed, but the system prompts that the vehicle already has a valid Beijing entry permit, this is a system error message, and the vehicle owner should go to the Beijing inspection station to apply in person. Important notes for applying for a Beijing entry permit: 1. Currently, only non-local small passenger vehicles are allowed to apply for an electronic Beijing entry permit online; other vehicles still need to apply at the inspection station's permit window. 2. Electronic and physical Beijing entry permits cannot be applied for repeatedly during the same period. 3. Electronic Beijing entry permits cannot be renewed at urban area safety supervision windows.
I've encountered this issue before. It's likely that the information you entered doesn't match the vehicle registration certificate. You need to carefully check the brand and model section on the registration certificate, paying attention to uppercase/lowercase letters and spaces - everything must match exactly. Sometimes the system can't recognize special characters like parentheses, so try removing them before submitting. Another possibility is that the platform's database hasn't been updated with the new model data for your vehicle. In that case, you'll need to call the 122 traffic management hotline for manual application. Don't worry - just try a few more times or attempt during different time slots. My neighbor had to submit three or four times before it went through. The key is not to make any mistakes with letter and number combinations.
This is a very common issue, mostly caused by discrepancies in vehicle information entry. You need to focus on checking three key areas: the brand and model on the vehicle license must be copied exactly as printed without any alterations; the ending digits of the engine model number are easily confused; for imported vehicles, ensure the English name on the customs declaration matches. Last time when I helped a friend, we found his car was a Tiguan L but he selected the Tiguan option which caused the failure. If all else fails, take a screenshot of the vehicle license and visit the traffic management bureau in person—their system can directly photograph and recognize the details, saving you from potential manual entry errors.
