1 Answers
Methods for handling the license plate number after selling a car: If the owner has used the license plate for more than 3 years, they can have priority to continue using it. Otherwise, the license plate that does not meet the conditions will be immediately reclaimed by the government and re-entered into the national license plate pool for other types of car owners to freely choose from. According to the regulations of the vehicle management office, there are three prerequisites for retaining the original license plate: 1. The owner must have owned the original vehicle for at least three years or more; 2. Regardless of whether the owner's car has undergone a transfer registration or cancellation registration, the owner must apply to retain the original license plate number within six months after selling the car; 3. Within six months, the owner needs to have a new car and complete the license plate registration process at the vehicle management office following the normal new car registration procedure.
